All That’s Left

Posted on August 26, 2022 by Penny Wilson Writes

My skin 
remembers 
your tender touch 

Your soft 
whispers 
memorized

Each line and curve 
of your face 
the blue of your eyes 
forever enshrined

At unexpected moments 
I'm reminded of 
last talks
last walks
the last times... 

I treasure 
each of these
for they're all I have left 
of you
