What if smells a lot like vanilla But not like scented candle vanilla And not like perfume vanilla But like liquid air freshener vanilla that you’ve had in your drawer for two years and didn’t have enough left in the bottle to use the spray top so you unscrewed the lid and splashed it all over your sheets Let it dry Waited two days Then invited a pretty girl over Let her sleep in your bed Had *** Dreamt of forever Took a shower Laid back in your bed Let her go And then slept face down on the pillow you let her use while reading text messages about how she won’t be able to keep seeing you any more You know, that kind of vanilla
