"Sacred Imprint"

"...for my spirit to be enticed beyond its capacity"

By Flowetree Lokx (IG:@fl0wetree)Published 5 years ago 1 min read

You left your imprint on me

...and I wondered what it would be like if it stayed forever...

A permanent stamp

An everlasting feel

A sacred piece of you, left on me

When it happened, I didn't think twice to keep it

It lingered...

And some how it seeped into my heart

I'd like to experience it longer

Maybe multiplied all over

Maybe never leaving me

How can I erupt from a gesture so subtle?

A gesture so small, yet so powerful, it changes the climate in the space

Makes my Soul warm

A chamber for my Spirit to be enticed beyond its capacity

It reached out for you

But you quickly departed before it could attach and intertwine with you

You left me with a piece of you

...and left me selfish, wanting more

For myself...

My desires lead to my dreams of you

Tell me you felt it...

Tell me your Spirits sparked when your lips lit the flame

Igniting a sensational burn

But the scarring was pure and innocent

You can't spell "Sacred" without "scar"

So I guess I'll keep it-

-and forever cherish this imprint.
