 HAPPY BIRTHDAY to LEE PAIGE!   ;-)

'A Passing Glance'

Alone,

Silent in the shadows,

You danced,

Unawares,

That one,

Only time.

 

Then froze,

Averse to,

Plain sight.

 

As for me?

Perchance,

My gaze askance...

I was the dark,

Having glimpsed,

The divine.

While this short poem expresses the essence of the one and only time you permitted yourself to dance - before my passing shadow cut it short - it does not cover all the nuances of that brief instance, nor can it. Indeed, many unnamed factors figured into our chance encounter. Chiefly however, it was your trying to become invisible that struck me, whereas, I… always was - even to this day.
