Love Poem: Love Is Only a Moment

Love Is Only a Moment

You rolled your eyes and turned your back
Together we stood, separately
You looked at me and said

There’s nothing you can do
Nothing you can say to take this pain away
I forgot how it felt to feel this way
Now you brought it back again
And this time it’s here to stay

you made me feel safe
Sheltered me from the bad 
Took to my heart like Cupid’s arrow
And there you stayed
What went wrong
