Drink deep

Drink deep. Soak it up, take it all in, because this might be the last time your hands touch hers ever again.

Or maybe it won't. Maybe this all too fleeting moment of intimacy will awaken something she didn't know was there, cause her to change her mind, ensure she never leaves.

The former is more likely though, as you know all too well. Maybe that's the real reason she's holding you so close. Do we really need to think about reasons right now?

Drink deep. Taste her skin, feel her lips on yours, run your fingers through her unkempt hair once more.

You'll miss her hair in your face. You'll miss strange things. You'll miss being in the kitchen together. You might even miss her tickling you.

She's not here for much longer. Does it even feel like she was here at all? Where did the time go? She'll leave and you'll swear it was all a dream, if it weren't for the scent of perfume on your pillow.

Drink deep.
