Senses of You

in #poetry7 years ago

You taste like tequila and tacos
or captain mixed with coca-cola.

you smell like colognes I can't afford
with names I can't remember
mixed with the camel menthols you wish you didn't like.

you look at me with that half smile
and the mark for your old lip piercing shows
the one you don't wear anymore.
and just like that
I love you.
