How It Feels

When I think of you I see poetry.
I hear Picasso, and I taste the music we binged to on our ways home.
I smell our memories; the mint on your breath at the end of a long night, in plastic seats, surrounded by strangers.

When I think of you I see rhythm.
I hear the light shine from your smile, and I taste the longing for more time together.
I smell a future obstructed by reality; the laughter and shameless singing of music, side by side, in leather seats searching for adventure.

When I think of you I see perfection.
I hear your voice echo across the pond, and I taste the mint on my breath.
I smell your perfume; it lingers on my shirt as I walk back to my apartment, in borrowed clothes, to sleep surrounded by strangers.
