I smell your scent while I’m sleeping,
it wakes me right out of my dreams.
I feel that you might be close then,
there’s more to death than it seams.
A waft of your perfume can stop me,
halting the things I’m trying to do.
It is a fragrance that is so familiar,
it carries me straight back to you.
The perfume is right on the bedside,
but I know it is not that I can smell.
As the scent is tied to my memories,
and I just know it is you, I can tell.
That aroma is linked to emotion,
it is one I connect straight to you.
I’m beaming when I smell you near,
I just so wish I could see you too.

Oh, I understand this. I’m sorry and happy for you all in one breath because, at least for me, those moments are so bittersweet. Much love.
