the smell of your cologne lingers on my clothes and it hurts my heart. you aren't mine but at the same time i think you are. there's something about the way we are with each other that makes me feel like we belong to each other. you let me hold you, never showing that you hate the way i drape myself over you like you do with others. you joke with me in a different way to the way you do with everyone else. people tell me that you act differently when you're with me and i wish i could tell you that everything you do brings a smile to my lips, something that doesn't seem to happen a lot anymore. i want to tell you that every time something reminds me of the way you move, talk, smell; my heart skips several beats. your cologne lingers on my clothes but you're not mine and i have to wash it away.

a lingering want.
