Love's Wager

To us, this moment is the whole universe!  
Still, we are mere cogs in the wheel,  
interchangeable, yet varied in our parts.  
 
Would you give a piece of your precious life for a few ecstatic seconds?
Yes, comes the naive answer back again and again.
So, mysterious lovely human looking at me with bright eyes,  
let us wager each other in this bid for a small slice of love from the infinite.
