Senses hold the best memories

I sometimes find myself driving by the beach
and getting the smell of the air
and I remember sitting there with old friends
and family

I see the mountains with their grand splendor
and think back to the beautiful lake we camped on when I was a kid

I feel my girlfriends touch
and I remember every intimate moment spent with her. Every touch before

I hear her sing and I am reminded of the power of a choir

I taste my mothers cooking and I remember my grandmother and her homemade baking

My senses bring back memories that make me want to cry because I miss them and they make me happy.
