Around You
I like the smell of cigarettes, gasoline, and your cologne.
I like the sight of green hills, library shelves, and your laughter filled eyes.
I like the sound of running water, oven timers, and your voice on the phone.
I like the taste of cream soda, mom’s cooking, and your lips.
I like the feeling of clean sheets, pet fur, and your hands intertwined with mine.
Time goes slower in your car and my thoughts run rapid.
There’s an endless racket inside of my chest and I think you can hear it too.
My eyes carelessly wander over to the drivers side
And all my senses are heightened around you.
I like the smell of coffee, fresh cut grass, and your cologne.
I like the sight of rolling waves, city lights, and your laughter filled eyes.
I like the sound of tapping finger nails, keyboard clicks, and your voice on the phone.
I like the taste of fresh bread, the rain, and your lips.
I like the feeling of the sun on my skin, cotton shirts, and your hands intertwined with mine.
