Overtaken

No, time itself didn’t stop…
But this hopeless heart did…
Speaking your beautiful words to me…
  It was only ‘hello’, but plenty enough…

Incapacitated, I stood there and watched…
As you took me for your own…
Those brown eyes rendering me defenseless…
Your soft voice taking me over…

We are here and now together…
Yet I’m already afraid of missing you…
A love that’s a mere few minutes old…
And I can’t help but to think of the future…
