Cherish it

there is a reason
that goes beyond
the matter of time

does it explain
the tightness of my chest
and the pounding it begets? 

have I felt this before?
just once have I known
oh, so long ago

I couldn't speak my mind
in that time
and I hoped it'd go away

this feeling is still
so unknown to me

oh how I wish
that I could
believe in you
