Love's Brief Candle

Your pulse quickened,

You gasped,

You felt a warmth growing in your stomach,

You want to embrace it......

but it lasted only for a moment.

Ending before it even begun.

Then, it ended.

As quick as the streak of light that meteors leave behind as they penetrate into the atmosphere.

And it ended,

leaving you with a lump in your throat that you cannot swallow.

So, it ended.

And you laughed at your own heartache,

to feel so attached at such short time.

Yes,

it ended.

Laughing melancholically,

Debbay
