Love poem

Sensory Overload

You still haunt my dreams
Mad at me for what I done
Me wishing you would forgive me
Wanting to tell you how wrong I was
But I awake and once again all my senses have lied to me


My eyes are constantly deceiving me
I've seen your face in so many people
Everywhere I go, it's always you
It's gotten so bad that if I were to actually see you
I wouldn’t believe my eyes

 
My ears still ring your songs
As I play every sad song over and over again
Wallowing in sorrow and self pity
Trying to find the words that some singer wrote
That will bring you back

 
I can still taste your sweet kiss
Soft and smiling
Sensual and passionate
Sometimes marked by the cigarettes we hated
But now it is all dry ashes I taste

 
Sage and weed
The smell of the ocean
A freshly cooked meal
All bring me back to you
All make me miss you 


When my skin feels a freezing chill
Or a warm breeze
I think of you
Your soft touch
As we held each other

 
Really I can't escape you
I still torture myself with the thought of you
I know I should move on
Let go, but nothing compares to you
And my mind and body won't let go
