Brief Encounter – Poem

Benjamin Fastnedge 2 Comments
A scene from the film Brief Encounter. Ceia Johnson and Trevor Howard are sitting at a table. There are cups of tea on the table and a small vase of flowers. 
I see his face in my teacup
It's warm and comforting
His smile
Stirring feelings of content
Then the steam clouds
Like little train puffs
Wait...
I have something in my eye
One gentle touch removes the pain
Then he's gone

(This poem is inspired by the film Brief Encounter.)
