Grasp at your heart's content
The person you want to hold
Moments you wish were longer
Express what remains untold
Because when you finally feel
Despite what did transpire
The others were only fodder
For fire that won't expire
The flame burns deep within
For base emotion never felt
Once ignited, not extinguished
Old defenses just start to melt
Crowds, numbers, just statistics
Despite countless years alone
For in a revelry of intimacy
The sanctity you built was home
Yes, I will return there often
And clasp it to heart and soul
What you unveiled in me, I clutch
Full knowing you made me whole
