A fleeting sensation
Not to be mentioned
The erratic beat of the heart
An obsession of the mind starts
Catching a glimpse of paradise.

Enticing words replete
This world beyond complete
A gentle sway the mind espy
This need to no longer cry
The boundless possibilities.

A cherished interlude
Love forever eludes
Ashes of once roaring fire
Perfect dreams thus must die
Reality at last intrudes.
