I was in love with the smell of your skin <br />as I laid next to you at night. <br />Soft and light brown skinned of man <br />with a buttocks, so firm and tight! <br /> <br />Your legs stretched on for miles <br />you eyes like some soap opera king! <br />But your personality my darling <br />had some improving it, to bring! <br /> <br />You were mean, with a condescending tone! <br />I lived with you for nine years trying <br />to make our house a home! <br /> <br />No matter what I tried to do <br />you found fault with it all! <br />But something kept me hanging on <br />hanging on until my fall! <br /> <br />You made sure you had another <br />in the wings, waiting to move in! <br />And I became but a memory <br />of where our love had been. <br /> <br />I'm sorry I waited and tried so hard <br />I know now you weren't worth the work! <br />Because all you gave me was a hellish life <br />and you acted like, an ass, a jerk! <br /> <br />But sometimes in the dark of night <br />as I lay next, to the man I love now! <br />I can still smell the scent of your skin <br />I seem to still smell you still somehow!<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-smell-of-you-2/
