Petrichor

Petrichor reminds me of you and me
When we were still in love
Wandering in Manhattan was what we used to be
Petrichor reminds me of you and me
Way back when we were still happy
You and I was all that we have
Petrichor reminds me of you and me
When we were still in love

I had to look this up. Interesting that it's a scent that brings you back. It must have been a tough loss. Love is such bummer when it doesn't work out. Thank goodness there is always more.

this is nice. I love triolets so thought I'd check this one out. But I don't know what Petrichor is! I am guessing it is some kind of a place!
