For How Long

I'm not sure for how long
Can I make myself believe
To have forgotten how
To love you.

For how long can I hold
These glances when you're
A handsome temptation
In my peripheral view.

These blazing words I stack
Underneath my tongue,
For how long til it burns
A confession out.

Keeping distance and feign
Non-chalance, for how long
Can I reject all hopes
And trust all doubts.
