A Little Longer

Held hands,
Cupped hearts,
Risk of love.

Like leaves,
I sway with the winds,
Beauty passes,
A false alarm,
A heart trigger,
Eyes follow,
My heart stalls,
I fear denial.

Memories reel,
Seem real,
Heartbreaks,
Silence,
Suspense,
Leading questions,
Sweet bondage,
That's love;
My definition.

It may change,
It may not,
I fear, but
Like a living bait,
I wait,
When love knocks,
I'll open,
If it doesn't,
I'll still wait.
