Perfume and Cologne

Like the perfection of flame and candle
My perfume flirts with your cologne
A Sensory journal, viscously travelling
Every part, turning my inside out
Light softens to the burning wick
As we lay welded together – meshed
Our minds run free into moments
Reflections with words and expression
Marvel at where our thoughts take us
Into hours until we fall pleasantly asleep

Scents have the power to evoke strong emotions. For me the smell of coconut brings sensual thoughts.
