The Moment
By Scarrzz
This moment is all we will ever have
A foolish mistake born
of urgent need
The pull is so strong when one finally finds his equal
Your beauty in that moment is forever burned into my memory
Even the thought makes it difficult to breathe
I released
everything I had so that I could reach for you
And in so doing, released
my honor and became unworthy of you
Only one moment of passion
and hope
and a lifetime to know what will never be mine
But I will not forget the sound of your voice
as you told me,
" I want you "
At once the most beautiful words I have ever
heard
and the curse that condemned me forever
