:'( Baby Powder :-(

I can smell you, feel you flowing & moving inside of me.

I count the times I've craved...

 

the many nights I've longed to touch you, hold you close to my breast, watch you as your eyes look into mines.

I've counted the days weeks & months, counted all this time for a longing-- a yearning...

 

This time it'll be different, this time it'll work,

I've waited & wanted so long, And in my emptiness.

I've cried, held my pillow close,

so tight as sobs consumed me, taking over my body,

 

leaving in its wake a mournful craving, this burnt longing...

A taste of what we could be, II can smell you, feel you flowing & moving inside of me.

 

I count the times I've craved... the many nights I've longed to touch you, hold u close to my breast, watch you as your eyes look into mines.

 

I've counted the days weeks & months, counted all this time for a longing-- a yearning...

 

This time it'll be different, this time it'll work,

I've wanted so long and in my emptiness.

 

I've cried, held my pillow close, so tight as sobs consumed me, talk g over my body, leaving in its wake a mournful craving, this burnt longing...

 

A taste of what we could be, I've counted each time, for months I've tried to imagine you & imagine the what ifs, on what could of been, with what should be!  

 

I can smell you, with your baby powdered hair, your lotioned skin, those eyes, bright & beautiful, looking at me, every heart beat I hear echo's with my own.

 

Like these tears I shed, unleased pain... anguished from these dream's, my living waling nightmares, sorrow so mournful in my barren state!

 

Eye's puffy-red, knee's aching as I pray, night& day.

Day & night, sleep eludes me, Restlessly  I walk a grove in this carpet, thinking of what coulda been.

 

Mentally I've gone so low, over & over I ask myself what did I do so wrong...

 

Sealing my fate so miserably, impelling doom all around me, but I'll go and mourn I'll scream out painfully until I've suffered no more.

 

Still so still & yet as lifeless as you lay...

I can smell you...
