When love fades…

Folder: 
2015

 

I still look good in

jeans and a bra;

though I feel naked

without you;

 

and I drink coffee

sometimes;

freshly brewed from

a French press;

 

pretend it can bring

you back to me;

close my eyes and

I can smell you

 

laying against me

after sex…

still my ears and I

can hear you

 

laughing at my awkward

Hitler jokes…

touch my heart and I feel

your perfect post-work silence…

 

spread my lips and taste

your cigarette stained kisses….

open my eyes and realise….

that I can no longer recall

 

 

what you actually looked like

A thought from the poem

fading and fresh

It depends on what you do with the ending, but the idea of the smell of fresh coffee and faded love struck me. maybe that will help ;-)
