Perfume

You awaken me
With the light that shines in your eyes
And the gentle breeze of your smile
I rise to embrace your promise
I take your hand

You melt me
With the warmth that glows in your voice
And the fiery burn of your touch
I thaw to enter your river
I drink you in

You intoxicate me
With the taste that smears on your lips
And the heady scent of your hair
I inhale to lap your desire
I breathe you in

You soothe me
With the balm that seeps from your words
And the calming stroke of your sighs
I pause to detect your whisper
I hold you close

You inspire me
With the care that aches in your heart
And the shy wisdom of your ways
I dream to conjure your shadow
I find you home
