Thought this up today in the shower
I can’t help but think of you as I smell your scent
You left your shampoo at my house
A daily reminder of you

Moments lost in time rain down on my skin
The soap rinses away
Thoughts of your touch remain...

Behold this shadow that once was you.
Cast away our stolen fears
Hidden deep within flowing tears.
A daily reminder to all who stand

the colours of he and I and made
by his hand as a daily reminder
that my value has no figure high enough, cost beyond measure.
Gift.

I am folded into the scent of his embrace....
