Bring Me Home

What I’d like to give you
Is an ounce of my perfume
As I leave my door ajar
Know that with my scent 
I am letting you into my heart
A thousand scents of love
We cannot feign 
As you close your eyes 
And let my scent drift in
In your cupped hands
You now hold my heart
My lingering perfume
The one you adore
Wear me now 
Or forever more
It is I flowing headily 
Right beneath your skin
