here,
taste.
this is the taste
of everything
you have lacked
til this
moment
in your life.
all wrapped up
and embodied
in just a few
hours;
it is
waiting to fill
every space
in between your
longing
and your
ache.

here,
feel.
this is how it feels
to finally breathe
again;
the sweet surrender
of your
burning lungs
sighing
slowly forgetting
and exhaling
the pain
away.
breathe.

here,
smell.
these are the scents
waiting to haunt
you;
they will become
the triggers
for every
murderous
memory.
sticking softly
where the
silhouette
once lay.
they will
haunt
you.

here,
listen.
this is the voice
that will change your
life
forever.
how can it
create such a
smile
and still have the
strength
to make tears
fall?
even a whisper
and you will
fall.

here,
look.
these are the images
you will never
lose.
the shadows
were painted
so perfectly
still.
you will memorize
every shape,
your fingertips
remember the
lines
the darkness
hid
from you.
