Touch me
If you could, would you touch me again
Your touch soothed me like a hug after a long day
Contrary to all the burning I've had to endure
If you want, could you touch me again
Your touch unraveled me like every person that has been loved
Contrary to all the disgust I've settled for
Even if you would, I don't want you to touch me again
Your touch which felt like home started to feel a lot like the burning I tried so hard to let go of
Resemblance to the disgust I felt after knowing you've touched someone else
So even if you could, if you wanted to, I DOn't want you to
Touch me
