Somehow significant

I have a different scent today
it's your scent
the scent of your bed
it may be somehow significant
I get a whiff of it when I flick my hair
Can your scent resolve my internal conflict?
Can your affection mend me?

You don't objectify me
you don't put me on a pedestal
that was done to me before
I slipped off and disappointed him
not because I didn't try
but because I became an object
a prized possession high up on a shelf
to polish off once in a while
to scrutinise and boast of one's achievements

You don't treat me that way
you send me songs
and kiss the whole of my body
you linger in the right places
you call me 'hot' as opposed to 'cute'
I like that so much better
I am a woman, see
not a child
I grow taller every time you look at me.
