my nightshirt imbued your scent the pillows on my bed the t-shirt left behind sheets permeated our essence fused infused vital presence your towel drying on the rod thin black swirls of hair in the tub after the shower your toothbrush scribbled drawings photos of you shapes in the couch's pillows even the pan used for breakfast the dirty dishes on the counter tender memories I collect let me cherish them remind me a while longer until they fade erased simply tucked away moments captured time we shared linger longer suspended
