seeking perfection

sometimes it’s hard to beat perfection

the perfect way your hand fits mine
and every curve on my body
the perfect way our mouths meld together
creating a flawless, inextricable tangle
how perfectly my mind goes blank
nothing but feeling and expressing
the perfect scent you leave on my skin
making me miss every moment next to you
and begging me to renew the aroma
by curling up next to you once again
how you know me perfectly
every little bit and attribute
how i perfectly trust you
to keep me safe, to have my back
how perfectly i fell into you
my heart flying over my head

only after perfection slips away
do you realize anything ever was
