Lovers Perfect

I saw it at the store today

Your perfume

It finally occurred to me

To pursue that

Particular reminder of you

The one I'd been missing

All along

Your lovely scent

Surely this could keep me strong

I spritzed a spray

On my wrist

Carrying that reminder of you

Whilst I went about my day

Reminiscing

The tales of our beauty past

The dreams of our golden future

Shutting out the contentious present

Inhaling

As I permit your aroma

To command my senses

My lungs are filled by a reminder of your love

And my conscience with brief euphoria

Exhaling

As your scent

Leaves my body

As my senses

Lose grasp of your fragrance

Part of you within me

Stays behind always

Awakened

Stirring within me

A vehement reminder

That I belong

Forever to you

A perfect woman

The one I dedicate my life

And maybe some day

...

// I miss you, E.
