In A Momentary Glance Poem by Mark Heathcote

In a momentary glance, I'd fallen in love.
And I almost cried a reservoir, a tear-
That'll never be depleted in the end.
Not in an instant, a minute, or a year.

All my senses are tingling, even my skin.
The moon is glowing like it could never
have mattered a bit unless it's film of light
Was to touch you and dare to endeavour-

To kiss and be hypnotised like a jewel thief
My heart is now howling for a taste.
A drop of your love, a look cold and caprice
A discarded laurel wreath, if you please.

Oh, the mercury is falling.
But yet, I'm still yearning.
Drowning without a sound
No excuse from anywhere else can help me.
So let me drown with god's speed.

Oh, have you ever cried?
Oh, I mean, really -cried.
Because you just knew
Nothing else other than the one you love would have sufficed.
In a momentary glance, have you ever fallen in love?
