Scents

Dirty clothes
Dirty dishes
Crumpled sheets
Ashes

An aroma

Lifts the through the haze.
Sinks into the nasal passages
Holds me
Tight
Tighter
The clock beat quickens
The memories flood

You

Chocolate luscious
Sweet sticky
Melting in fingers
Free
Stunning
Gaze averting
Dangerous
Graced... mine eyes

A heartbeat ago...

I want it now!!


You linger... your scent
