transient before the moon
her facelost years
in seconds
the deep dark
lines beneath
her eyes just
went
dissolved
disappeared
gone erased
opening up
in light and
laughter her
eyes sparkled
and grew intense
I had waited
years for this
and even the
deepest tender
kiss could not
have worked such
magic but like
a cloud transient
before the moon
her luminescent
gentle charm
passed by
too soon
too late
but
lasting
