Slithers and Coils
So, I keep my eyes open;
Stealing a glimpse of you.
Blinking as quick as I can,
For a second or two.
Never will I get tired of glancing at you;
And if given a chance, I would be honored to look after you.
Never been this afraid of losing track on something,
Until my heart bounces like in a coil spring.
It seems like it will not stop somersaulting,
'Cause it is an answered prayer to see the same thing.
Time goes twice as fast
Every time you pass.
Before I can even hitch my breath,
The Earth's slow motion has come to an end.
Now, looking back to the very first time I saw you,
It was just a wave of hand
But it slithered through.
Ever since then, I knew I have been wrapped up,
By the warmth of your goodbyes
That momentarily coiled this ice-cold heart...
