It was only
a few seconds of warmth
as my fingers fit perfectly
in the spaces between yours
For a few moments
your hand was the anchor
that kept me from floating away
Too often
I am only too willing
to just close my eyes
and sink.
But now,
for a few seconds
I have the strength
to swim
Or more importantly,
I actually want to
If only to hold you again
for a just few more moments.
