Green Flash at Sunset

For a minute we were soulmates...

You knew me before ever speaking.

I gave you my heart. And you?

You gave me a sense of self, accepted me,

and —dare I say— perhaps even loved me 

                                     ... for a minute

You were my ‘green flash’ at sunset 

bright…rare…there

then gone as quickly,

leaving me holding

your memory.
