For But A Moment

Let us meet,

For but a moment.

Fate intervening,

Chance enlivening,

Souls perfectly sent into a moment of union,

Thrown blissfully together

Without the interference of the mind.

Let us talk,

For but a moment.

Our words entwining,

Our thoughts colliding,

Creating a cacophony of intricate counterpoint

With unexplainable understanding,

For which we need no explanation.

Let us sing,

For but a moment.

No melody present,

In perfect harmony.

Notes untempered by the proper procedure,

Vicariously twisting together

Through music played by blessed joy.

Let us dance,

For but a moment.

Hard beats resounding

With secret rhythms.

Our hearts dictating the subtle steps,

Tightly held in passion,

Erupting from a hidden well.

Let us kiss,

For but a moment.

Perhaps a dream,

Perhaps not real.

Frozen time departs from any sense of reason,

A fire burning strong,

Flames fiercely licking our core.

Let us part,

Without a moment.

The mind moderates,

Reality returns.

Dreamt of kisses still lingering on the lips.

A smile. A nod.

All that remains of the moment that was,

Of the moment that cannot be,

    You are a brilliant word smith. A seasoned soul with a young mans out look. You will do great things..
