Moment Everlasting

Note: My 2am Ramblings

Why do I do this to myself,
Torn and tortured to the core?
Bound in promises of lovers,
Yet I'm always hoping for more.

Please don’t leave so soon;
I need you a little closer.
When you go, it feels so final—
Stay with me a moment longer.

This love, just a fleeting instant,
A flicker in the darkest night,
A bright and steady tower
Guiding lost souls toward the light.

A lover’s moment, everlasting,
One I long will never end,
A beauty pure and tender—
A dream the heavens send.
