lost in an embrace

it's been such a long time since i even saw his face, and i hadn't thought about him for the longest time ever. but someone walked past me today wearing the perfume he bought me for christmas. i unconsciously stopped walking and turned around to follow the woman, so the smell wouldn't leave me.
everything flooded back. the certain way we fitted together when we lay down, my head in the groove of your shoulder, my head resting on your arm. the pause just before we kissed each other, our lips a millimetre apart, while we were taking in the look we'd give each other. the way my hand slotted perfectly into yours. how your lips felt against my neck, and the hot breath of air that let me know you were behind me. the cool sensation of your silver necklace against my skin, and the warmth your body gave out while we were lost in an embrace together.
no one ever made me feel that safe, like nothing in the world could hurt me while you were holding me tightly. i've lied to so many people.
i do miss you.
