I'm wearing the t-shirt you left. It was stuffed in the corner of my room. In a small space between the bed and the wall. It emits the scent of your skin. And embodies the softness of your hands. It reminds me of how your arms don't begin to tan until just below your elbows. I fill my palms with it's fabric and breathe in deeply. I think I can smell sweat. It rested on the bridge of your nose last night. Dripped down into your tear duct. I looked at you as I came into the room, you were laying on your stomach with the blanket wrapping you like a cocoon. We fell asleep, but occasionally I would wake to the sensation of your lips on my shoulder blade. I remember feeling something in my stomach. I remember wishing you would kiss me good morning. Don't say 'adieu'.
