Here I am Alone with your lingering scent The only indication That you were here It was real And not an imagination Bathe in your fading scent I try to reminisce Those moments you were here Your smiles that made me smile Your gentle and subtle touch On my hands..elbows..back Those were moments ebbed in my memory Something to look back on And wishing there would be a repeat But no...you are finally walking away Turning your back on me Without goodbye Without notice Without a final glance It was as sudden as a thief Running away with my emotions I thought was intact all along But you were able to steal a part of me I was guarding for a long time You who has no license to do it You who never should have smiled on me I am now at this moment Alone With your lingering scent Hoping it would stay A little bit longer with me.

Lingering Scent
Here I am Alone with your lingering scent The only indication That you were here It was real And not an imagination Bathe in your fading scent I try to reminisce Those moments you were here Your smiles that made me smile Your gentle and subtle touch On my hands..elbows..back Those were moments ebbed in my memory Something to look back on And wishing there would be a repeat But no...you are finally walking away Turning your back on me Without goodbye Without notice Without a final glance It was as sudden as a thief Running away with my emotions I thought was intact all along But you were able to steal a part of me I was guarding for a long time You who has no license to do it You who never should have smiled on me I am now at this moment Alone With your lingering scent Hoping it would stay A little bit longer with me.
Moving forward i s tough
