Once I saw you in the stars
The twinkling pinpricks
Dancing across the sky
Reminded me of your eyes.

Once I heard you in a melody
The melancholy tune
Set to joyful words
Reminded me of your smile.

Once I tasted you in a chocolate
The rich cocoa
Topped with a sprinkle of sea salt
Reminded me of your kiss.

Once I smelled you in a rainstorm
The scent of wet pavement
Overlaid with the freshness of spring
Reminded me of your imagination.

Once I felt you in the ocean
The warm, salty water
Slowly drying out my skin
Reminded me of your soul.
