You turn,
Walk away.
I call,  
You twist,
And we stop
And Stare.
You smile,
Then whirl  
And are  
Gone.
I sit and I …

Eternity
Waits.
Life moves
Me,
Across passages
Of time.

A Fleeting,
Glimpse,
Corner of
My eye.
You are,
There
With that
Smile.
My breath
Stops,
My heart
Lurches…

You turn,
Again!
Walk away
Once more!
And are gone,
I sit
And
I break.
