For a Second

It’s been a minute,
Been thinking about you,
The last time I saw you,
The last time I got to hold you in my arms,
I can still feel your touch,
Soft and tender, unending...
Dancing under the stars, nothing else mattered,
For a second, it was just us…
For a second, the world stopped spinning,
For a second, a fire lit inside of me,
It burned, unquenchable...
It burned, all-consuming…
It burned,
Our lips then parted, our hold released,
The fire inside, snuffed,
For a second, it was just us,
And yet I remain, trapped within that second,
The clock’s hand will not yield,
For it yet searches inside of me,
For the last embers, deep within,
It will not yield, it will not…
I will not fight it, I will not resist,
The fire must return, 
Unquenchable and unrelenting,
It will not die.
