You Were


You were

By Armando Ortiz


You were

caramel salt

after our long hike


you were

black licorice

when I smelled those curls


you were

a jolly rancher

cherry kiss


you were

a ripe peach

warm to the touch


in this history of mine

you were

not an illusion


when our cheeks pressed

you were

golden silk
