Forever ended
before now began
to capture
each other
in the lens
of our eyes
beyond eyes
next time
we see
another
will be
memories
light & colors
scents
of our introduction
see us
concealed
parting ways
&
recollections
impressions
of our
sentimental brevity

life is indeed short...merely a blink in the grand scheme of things...our coming together and our parting..what memories we try to hold onto even if for the breath of our lives.....i like the riddle of those opening lines...
ReplyDeleteRegrets, moments with one did not last, a comet in the night. It is a paradox that the brief moments are the ones linger . . . and then are written about . . . in a way beautifully expressive.
ReplyDeleteI can relate . . . we probably all can.
Cheers
This feels like an instant crush. I love "next time we see another will be memories"
ReplyDeleteI specially like this part:
ReplyDeletelight & colors
scents
of our introduction
Short and sweet ~ I like the power of saying less, smiles ~
oh - those first lines made me catch my breath - and then the last line - just beautiful! K
ReplyDeleteBeautifully expressed.
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful..it is nice to read your work again..
ReplyDeleteHow things change from moment to moment and from love to love - nice reflection.
ReplyDeleteApologies if I'm duplicating my previous attempt at a comment, but this made me think of how things change moment to moment and from love to love - nice write.
ReplyDeletethe smallest moments usually mean the most... and they stay with us the longest too... this piece makes me think of those we almost didn't take... colorful & great write
