I remember the moment we first met
In the chilly March streets of Princeton
When you wrapped your arms around me
I remember everything I felt.

That memory runs through my veins
A colorful yet blue day
When you held me close in a different way
And your essence lured me down several lanes.

I remember your scent that I couldn't describe
The one that haunted me for weeks at a time
Struck me into paradise
Where rain came and went once or twice.

Once the rain simmers down to nothing but puddles
A gentle breeze sifts through my troubles
Bringing back your sweet scent and gentle touch
Immediately releasing me from reality's clutch.

Even after the rain,
After all the pain,
You and I still reside
Walking side by side.
