A Wish For a Time Machine

I wish that I had my own time machine 
to replay the moment that I met you; 
Lit on fire I was doused in gasoline; 
No longer was my heartbeat subdued 
everything since then has been brand new; 
Comfortable in the heat of what’s severe,  
I would gladly go back a couple of years 
experience you coursing through my veins; 
To feel how it felt before we got here 
capture your eyes for the first time again.
