Mar 2019
Swooned by the grace of its presence
The rise felt just as the set
Magical to behold, impossible to retain
The moment is all but brief

Sometimes there is no word
Drawn to action
Listen closely, never heard
Withstand this longing attraction

It’s not that love isn’t here
Without it there would be no beginning
Feel a smile, shed a tear
Now without there is but one end

Cautious tales that grown-ups tell
Distant memories fade like ash
Feelings brewing, strong they swell
Head first into reality they crash

That moment is not forever
Yet we remember it everyday
Close your eyes and wait patiently
This love is one that’s meant to stay
