The minimalist style works well here. It could be made more clear that the "restless eyes" in the third stanza are the boy's eyes. I think that the fourth stanza is a bit sudden and doesn't fit so well, although I do like it on its own. I'm not sure what you mean by "the egg is going soft," this ending could be stronger. I liked this poem overall!
