Infatutation
It's a little bit of everything: looks (including the sweetest, most charming smile ever), voice (feminine but not in an exaggerated kind of way) and smell.
It doesn't occur very often that you find yourself in love with someone else's perfume. But it happens. It's something that catches you off guard and makes you forget about everything around you. It's an attack on the senses and on reason. Logic no longer works.
But it's all so shallow. It's not love, it's infatuation, it's a crush. Love comes from knowledge, infatuation comes from lust. But how do you get out of it? How do you escape that powerful attraction that puts magnetism to shame?
I guess you have to realise it's childish, actually stupid, to follow those instincts. A victory of mind over hormones.
But, boy, it's hard to stop thinking about her, about that smile, about that smell...

BTW, estamos in a Perfume de Mujer kind of mood. I like it.
Sin embargo cuando yo lo escribí hace una horas, era más un grito de auxilio... es raro cómo uno escribe algo, y lo que escribe se transforma en otra cosa.
I'm not sure I like it, I prefer my normal self.
Es cierto que es dificil superar este tipo de sensaciones, que al principio uno piensa que es amor, pero estas cosas pasan, nos duelen y como dice el dicho "LO QUE NO TE MATA TE HACE MÁS FUERTE".

Besos!!
Caro: *blushing* er... gracias... voy a terminar admitiendo que tiene algo de eso (aunque fue bastante inconsciente).
Great post. Really moving.
