Breathing

Breathing my last breath

Of her insanely intoxicating scent

As she walks by

Staring at me with intent

Written all over her face

And a smile I cannot place

Gently holding my hand

Leading me to a man

I do not wish to meet

Without a smile on my face

I do not greet

For my mind is elsewhere

Being taken over by thoughts

Of kissing her sweet and tender lips

As my hands hold her hips

Bringing her closer to my body

Skin on skin brings me back

To her wide eyes that are so black

And her caressing my hand so gently

And smiling ever so sweetly

Pushing me closer and closer

To this man who could not falter

With his eyes so green

And teeth that would gleam

In the shine of the fading light

Knowing it is night

I bid my do's, and say goodnight

For there is no more reason I should stay

And I walk away into the night

Thinking if what I did was right

I exhale my last breath

Of her insanely intoxicating scent
