Faintly Impressed

by William Kirk

Rated: E · Poetry · Emotional · #2079833

brief encounter

Vestige of you
Against gray
Etched fading
Roughly spoken
Onto stone

Running my finger
Along your crack
Wetting my tone
Spilling hints
Ghostly impressions

Unmoved
Stoic
Set

Sweet

I'm tormented
Belittled
Embarrassed that I let you go

Vestige of me
You will never know
