a glimpse of a comeback...
You entered just to show yourself
and then turned back around and went,
as if the only meaning of your presence
was to show that you existed
in your total love and beauty,
giving just a glimpse of the ideal,
as if it was a dream of perfect love
to just appear and vanish instantly;
and yet, that glimpse was quite enough
for love to enter and to last eternally,
its mere existence being evidence enough
in just one second's visibility
to last forever and a lifetime.

The Glimpse
You entered just to show yourself
and then turned back around and went,
as if the only meaning of your presence
was to show that you existed
in your total love and beauty,
giving just a glimpse of the ideal,
as if it was a dream of perfect love
to just appear and vanish instantly;
and yet, that glimpse was quite enough
for love to enter and to last eternally,
its mere existence being evidence enough
in just one second's visibility
to last forever and a lifetime.
