Traces of You

My hands keep reaching out for yours

Even when you're not here anymore.
That alluring scent you exude
Keeps teasing me, pleasing me, putting me in the mood.
Those dark brooding eyes with which you stare at me from afar
Look at me the way an alcoholic looks at the bar.

I want to be your crippling addiction
The recipient of your adoration
Your one and only desire
The flame to your fire
Love me until I'm all you can do
Love me until all that's left behind are traces of you

Love and Other Drugs

There’s a new drug in town
That I can’t wait to get my hands on

They say he is addictive
I can attest to that myself
They say he’s super sweet
But I think he’s hot as hell

Like a moth to a flame
I find myself at his doorstep again
Begging for one more kiss
Begging for one more on my lips

“I swear it’s totally under control
It’s just a silly little crush”
Is what I told myself before
I fell head over heels for his touch.

No I don’t need rehab or an intervention
Because he is the perfect medicine
To heal my hollow heart
And make me feel like living art.

The Photo

I captured your spirit in a 3 by 4 frame.
The future may bring changes
But this will always remain the same
Several decades will pass by
And I will have grown old,
But my memories will remain nigh.
