Only A Few

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.
