Glimmers

Were you a trigger or a glimmer?
I wondered at first if my reaction towards you was a reminder of the past
Or maybe it was a desire for the future
With time, it was impossible to gauge the difference between the two
I decided it was a glimmer, based on the glimmer that inhabited my eyes
It happened overnight
You happened overnight
My heart poured overnight
An interaction between two pupils that felt accidental yesterday was a treasure today
A treasure that was lost with time
You dissipated into thin air, leaving me with my questions, my feelings, my past and hope for the future
I'm still here but the glimmer in my eyes left with you
Will it ever find me again?
