Ephemeral 

I am here once again 

looking for excuses, begging at my brain 

for words to say, something to do

that would let me get closer to you 

I’ve succeeded some times before 

but it never lasts for long 

as the sparks our eyes expel  

always seem ephemeral 

I could almost smell your hair 

we almost talked just trough the stare 

but the sparks our eyes expel 

always seem ephemeral 

The hug, the advice 

your capability to look me in the eyes 

my ability to go and make you smile 

I wish they’d stay
