A Face in the Crowd

20/11/2020 – Poem a Day Compilation



I only saw you for a moment

A fleeting observation

Capturing my heart briefly

Then releasing it once more



Your hair was dark brown

Like rich chocolate cake

And if I’d known you

I’d have wanted to run my fingers through it



Your eyes sparkled like diamonds

Piercing, pale and blue

Cutting through me

Like a hot knife through butter



Your skin glowed in the afternoon light

Radiating a warmth of soul

That I would not see again

For a great many years to come



I only saw you for a moment

A fleeting observation

But you stayed with me

I have not let you go ever since.
