orange blossoms

by Nicole M. - Gemini

apparently
   optimism smells
like orange blossoms
  and
August sunsets
 there is nothing
   pleasing about
the way
   i wash my flesh
with it 
  memorizing the sensation
of the soft bubbles
     piercing my skin
  forced to rinse them
away
    left with only the
 naked echos
     of August sunsets
  and 
    orange blossoms
