Tracing Our Afterglow.

Our day appeared, just
.......................right in the annals of time.
Birthed from sheer need
......................we both blossomed a while.
That summer was dappled
..................... with passion's warm juice.
We tasted abandonment's
............................... .... joy in love's fruits.

Our shadow still stalks
...........................my tenuous mindscape
Plainly, with hindsight,
.................................... I catch escaping
It's traces, vibrating
...................................with our afterglow,
Oh what I learned then,
.............................how I needed to know.

Interesting style, interesting content. Some encounters, although brief, teach us a great deal. Nothing is for naught.

Very expressive write Fay. Memories can be bitter sweet, but this one serves as a reminder of a lesson learned.
