Like He's You

Kimberly Tenold 2008 (Missouri)

I touch him like he's you
Hands tracing the muscles
Beneath a shirt
Separates me from him
What keeps us from being skin to skin
Because of you, my heart's on a mend
He's what keeps me free
Memories of you tear at me
Torn me from my bestfriend
Losing you was all it took at the end
To lose myself from the second
We started to believe in never
I know I won't ever be better
Unless I'm spending every second
I have left in me
To tell you my love for you
With reciprocating sins
