Crush

Some crushes fade off without a trace
Like colors on a wall
Like scent from a flower 
Like foot prints on a beach 

Some become jokes 
At times, private
As the intensity decreases 
Scents and foot steps are forgotten

Some crushes stick 
Stick like chewed gum 
Tough to wash off
Leaving behind a stain 

Some crushes are stored 
Voice, scent, face, style 
Kept away for easy access
Like a favorite snack

Some stay as a tickle
Some manage to turn a life around 
Some stay in the throat forever
Some never manage to get a name
