Can I Be Romantic For A Moment 

Anthony Hanible

Can I be romantic for a moment

Just a flick

Just a flame 

Just the truth I can’t tame

You hit my chest like a comet

Like a spark  

Breaking night

Like a pulse  

Wired tight

Let me say it while I own it

You’re the calm  

In my ache

You’re the breath  

I can’t fake

Every glance

A strike

A snap

A pull  

In my trap

So let me be romantic for a moment  

Just a beat 

Just a vow 

Just the fire  

Here and now 

You make my shadows  

Lift and bow
