15 Seconds

15 seconds. 
or was it 15 minutes?
It feels like an eternity. 
I miss you, and I just walked away.
I miss you, get out of my head tonight; 
I need you, take this chain pull it tight;  
I love you, drain my neck tonight, 
I want you, bite my lips in the moonlight;
You’re  so different, 
I want to touch your cloud;
You are magic 
I want to fan your fire; 
For 15 seconds,
or maybe an eternity.

The feeling of this poem reminds me of many moods I have had where I have no idea what I want, pulling and pushing someone away at the same time. Nicely done Melani.

Thank you. That dilemma is tricky.
