Time stood still, a cliche I know <br />But for a few short hours <br />Time did stand still <br /> <br />I saw you approaching <br />And my heart skipped a beat <br />I ran straight into your arms <br />A feeling bittersweet <br /> <br />You gazed deep into my eyes <br />As crystal tears formed suddenly <br />Kissing away the small drops <br />You held onto me tightly <br /> <br />Time stood still, a cliche I know <br />But for those few short moments <br />Time did stand still <br /> <br />Till the wee morning hours <br />We spoke of future dreams <br />We laughed and we smiled <br />For hours it seemed <br /> <br />We kissed in the restaurant <br />And others smiled inwardly <br />We held each others hands <br /> <br />As if there was only you and me <br />Time stood still, a cliche I know <br />But for a few short moments <br />Time did stand still <br /> <br />You watched me sleep <br />And then awoke me with your lips <br />Your fingers touching my skin <br />Sighing at the gentle nips <br /> <br />We made love all into the night <br />And in the morning hours again <br />Knowing our time was about to end <br />We laughed and kissed again and again <br /> <br />Time stood still, a cliche I know <br />But for a few short hours <br />Time did stand still<br /><br />Priya Patel<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/time-stood-still-4/
