Five Senses of Me

I.
I see
You in your favorite
Summer dress that
Insinuates those subtle curves
I so dearly miss.
II.
I hear
Your voice
So soft it soothes
When you speak
To me by phone.
III.
I taste
Your skin
Of honey and oats
When that sweetness hits me
So many miles from you.
IV.
I feel
Your skin so soft
Even in my lonely hours.
Away from home.
V.
I smell
Your jasmine scent
As I pass those plants scaling a
Roadside wall.
...
My five senses aroused
Even when you're not around
So dearly I miss you
As do my five senses.
With you I want to be.
That's what my senses are telling me.
