A Moment Lost To Time

Coordinates require input, chance comes coincidentally,
Rendezvous a meeting point, your wandering aimlessly,
Vector on interception course, we cross paths randomly 
Anticipation is foresight, I never imagined such beauty,

Innocent palpitations strike, overwhelmed by nubility, 
Calibration nonessential, elegance exudes so naturally,
Reason is the difficult part, am I thinking irrationally,
Infatuation happens, pubescence outgrows captivity,

Desire lost in translation, god what is happening me,
Cannot understand, attractions growing exponentially,
Resistance futile, unconditional surrender I give freely,
Stay a little longer, for I’m helpless through invisibility,

Somehow you went away, disappearing into obscurity,
My only confession now, is yearning a crushed fantasy.

Hi Sigrid you probably guessed this one is my first experience of a crush, the illogical thinking trying to make sense of new feelings, and worse of all trying to act normal, whilst hormones are all over the place, amazing how these memories stay so strong and raw all these decades later, thank you so much for stopping by cheers David
