You leave so quickly <br />into the night <br />followed by my thoughts, <br />footsteps that pace in your mind <br /> <br />You leave so quickly <br />my love can only follow <br />and I think you will smell me, <br />in your car, on your shoulder <br />where I wept, my perfume <br />fading, fading <br /> <br />You leave so quickly <br />my lips still feel the press <br />of your lips and I want to <br />touch where you were, <br />where you left sand and <br />ocean and sky <br /> <br />the depths cannot be found <br />because you have left so quickly, <br />the night has swallowed you like <br />the surf of the ocean<br /><br />Deb Fowler<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-leave-so-quickly/
