Cigarettes and Cologne: words of the past.

Cigarettes and Cologne

Only together, not alone

Bring such vivid memories

I can’t distinguish reality

The thoughts rush my mind

Like my life on rewind

Then the feelings start

Like bullets to the heart

The words surround my head

Like I have resurrected the dead

Am I nostalgic or just delusional?

This experience, not usual

I remember it all so clear

The day, the month, the year

The scent that lingered in the air

Everything that happened there

If there were one memory I’d wish to forget

And one person I could have never met

I’d choose that of cigarettes and cologne.

And the man that left me alone.
