Anxiety of Falling Inlove

Hi
Can we fall inlove?
Just for now
No commitments nothing permanent 
Just in this moment...
Can I hold your hand and call you mine,
Okay I know it's weird but let me tell you 
About time ,it ruins things 
There I said it.
See once upon a time 
I believed in true love
I saw forever in someone 
Who was temporarily my life 
And when they left 
This heart of mine felt empty.
So why would it last with another?
I only want to love while we both are high
Just for tonight 
When the sun rise in the morning 
We will say our goodbyes 
And go back to our normal.
I'm not sad neither 
Scared but I'm just a little prepared 
I expect you to leave 
And I'm okay with that now,
I don't need you to stay because 
I don't think I'm warm enough for the whole winter so eventually as we grow old
This love will turn Cold. 
So can we fall inlove
Knowing it won't last ?
Can I kiss you knowing you ain't the frog that will turn into my prince ?
Can our bodies touch without your lips promising me forever?
Because in this moment I'm sure 
You what I desire 
But in the next hour 
You will be a blurry memory.
