Reflections on Faded Love

There was a shining from myself once,
that on a special surface
made certain shades of light--
that seemed that time to be
illuminating all I did
to best degree.

A crystal or a diamond swung
could radiate with none such light
that I perceived to see inside
outside shape. Transformed by
mind triumphant--in a mirror,
blazed the sun.
