Subtleties

One moment, one glimpse

A million subtleties lay bare
Loquacious eyes of his
Gleam with a strange magic
Reflecting his pure essence
His smile, some days
Reaches the eyes
Other days, aimlessly lingers
He is the slow burn
She never saw coming
Penetrating her darkness
She weaves no dreams
She desires nothing...
Nothing but one glimpse
Of the million subtleties
Hidden in a moment of peace
