The Longest Second

Legs locked
Crippled and couldn't walk
She made my brain freeze
Couldn't think straight
Then my heart dropped down to my knees
I'd pick it back up to where my heart belongs
But looking in her eyes is inspiration to my song
Every millisecond prolonged
Regrets if I dared to blink
Stuck, awestruck-i'd rather not think
Have all my senses frozen
Beauty so precious and golden
Linked between eye contact
Keeps our souls intact
Although she's 100 feet away
My vision deceiving me, begging my eyes to stay
A conflicting tangible- seen easily so transparently 
Holding tight to this moment - her beauty I see
To surrounding objects, I'm blind
Selective seeing, my Movado's taking its time
Eyes out do every single sun ray
Streaking, gleaming through waters in the bay
But one of us will have to look another way
And look for another day 
Hoping our time hasn't ended
Connected, knowing our hearts blended
One day, maybe, we'll rid the uncertainty
But this second is perfect for me
