Dec 2016
you stood there
in front of me
a deep blue stare
depth of the sea

so I buried
my head in your chest
but I worried
you’d put your love to rest

so I held on
and wouldn’t let go
I held on
til there was no place to go

but I held on
til I hit a wall
and I held on
til there was no further to fall

but there was a moment
crystallized in time
there was a moment
engraved in my mind

it was your eyes
and your touch
your eyes
were too much

but for a moment
I kept staring
it was a moment
we were sharing

and I held on to that moment
with all my strength
but turns out that moment
was lacking in length

so the love passed me by
and I kept pulling you in to stay
but once that moment flew by
you kept pushing me away
