For a Moment

In that moment 
Every little thing
froze.
Only your movement
was apparent 
Nothing made sense,
But just for a
moment.

What then is
natural,
If what i feel is
not.
I would like you to
understand that,
Only even for a
moment.

I do not want then,
no,
You to stay long,
Here with me
Only for a moment,
Just for the moment
