Drifting on Your Memories

Drifting on your memories,
I find solace in our past.
I close my eyes to see your face,
And in those moments,
We’re together again.

Your scent knows how
To linger in the air long enough
To tease my temptations.
I breathe you in
And suddenly, I can feel you near me.

Drifting on your memories,
I travel back in time.
And I can feel your hands in mine
As we walk along the shores,
Where sweet memories
It still lingers despite the rushing waves.

I can feel your smile.
And the way it shines on me.
I miss your healing touch,
And the warmth of your
Therapeutic embrace,
You are kilometers away,
But in these memories are always close.
