I love the illusion of you
that lingers on your
favorite chair and in
the rumpled sheets
I love the scent of you
that hangs in the air
after you pass by
I love the sound of you
that echoes through
these empty rooms
when you are gone
I love the feel of you
at the end of a day
when there is just us
rhymeswithbug 
Mmm. Sexy, yummy, warm.

The emptiness is there in every line and the longing – this could be a love song to anyone – an empty nest perhaps.

A loved one may be gone temporarily but their presence lingers on. The bond is already set where the feelings are strong. Nicely Candy!
