Momentarily Mine

I clung to you like a shadow

afraid to leave, afraid to do anything alone


It was love, yes —

but formed from fear and need,

not the quiet kind that stays whole


I asked for distance, yet still I reached

because my heart was learning —

to protect itself 

while pretending to let go


We were a moment, intense

and I loved you then, 

for the way I needed to love, 

Not forever

Just for then.
