The Fragrance of Love

Always carry a spare shirt.
Leave your old shirt before you go.


The one you wore when you told me you loved me.

The one you wore as we talked holding hands.

The one I felt as we hugged.

The one you wore when we swore to be true.

The one you wore when we laughed out loud.

The one you wore when you wiped my tear away.

The one you wore when you said everything would be ok.


I will wear it once you've gone.

Breathing in,

You

once again.


I will sleep in it,
To help me through
A part of you to envelop,
To protect,
Through the lonely night ahead.

Washed and cleaned


Awaiting your arrival


Carry a spare just in case.

Please.
