Faded Image is a poem about the goodbye moment between two lovers. A moment kept in memory like an image that keeps fading.
The look you had is always in my thoughts. The one you had that last night. I did not know it was the last. You hugged me so tight, A bit tighter would break me. You knew. You would not see me again. You said nothing. For a minute only, You just looked deep into my eyes. Your eyes open wide while looking at mine. I was diving deep inside your mind. No. I was drowning inside your head. Getting lost forever, A faded image of your mind I couldn't stand that look. I tried to lower your head. I didn't want your look on me anymore. You didn't like it. No, not like this. You knew. Lowered your head and left almost running away from me...

Powerful. I feel a little convicted because I think I’m the one who is more aware of that last look but they aren’t.

Ah, the expressive nature of this piece is striking! I love how much I can fall into the words and place myself in line with the narration. Without saying goodbye, the words express farewell.
