Like second skin
You smelled forever like jasmine
Your embrace was laced
With crushed petals
And honeysuckle dreams
Breathing in strawberries
Wrapped with raspberries
Hinted hazy afternoon memories
With a single spritz of freesia
Shafts of sunlight streamed
Replacing the darkness
Behind my eyelids
The memory of a feeling
Intoxicating
Sharpening
With every breathing
Assaulted with rose dust
My chest I clutched
Your every scent
I wish I could bottle up

Your every scent
I wish I could bottle up
My mom’s perfume is safety.
