A Memory Without Regret

Particles of the air you breathed,
all that now remains.
Caught in sunlight, filtered down,
and rendered into dust;
faded red lipstick stains, 
the record of your lust.

I hear passion from this and am incredibly impressed with your writing. While short, the message came across to me very clearly.
