Moments

The brevity of the moment
that lasted a beat of her heart,
was nothing short of a lifetime
that changed her apart.

The conceit of the erudite
the ostentation of the juvenile,
the beauty of a thousand smiles
was quietly falling apart.

She watched her reflect
and she saw her ethereal self
for once she fathomed
what the moment meant.
