In the Moment

Suspended disbelief
that this will all come crashing down
impossible to not surrender
to the small pleasures that
are all I have left in this life

Delightful distractions
don't come by very often
I can't be expected to remain
in emotional isolation
indefinitely

Just allow me to enjoy
this temporary gift of exhilaration
and savor the fleeting sensation
of being young and in love
one last time
