no touching
You were naked and I, amazed
Raw and ready
Every line and crease
unto my touch
But ghosts
be your ruining
So I gave you a little head
But refused to let you touch me
So I fucked with your head
No one can touch me
So I planted the seed of doubt
Won’t someone touch me?
You question my mystery
Challenge my melancholy
But I won’t let you see me
Im an organdy sheet
merely composed of the breeze
I once let someone touch me
You are me just six years ago;
More of who I am than I am of me
So I understood why
Your progression would be to leave.
But I felt alright about it
My duty was to save you from me
I walked you to my door but feared closing it
This poet didn’t like the symbolism
I stood in its threshold asking for one more kiss
You stood in my threshold but were able to resist.
I reached for your hand but you passed right through
as I was never tangible;
a figment
just a lazy shadow
caught only in the corner of the eye
So how can anyone touch me
Raw and ready
Every line and crease
unto my touch
But ghosts
be your ruining
So I gave you a little head
But refused to let you touch me
So I fucked with your head
No one can touch me
So I planted the seed of doubt
Won’t someone touch me?
You question my mystery
Challenge my melancholy
But I won’t let you see me
Im an organdy sheet
merely composed of the breeze
I once let someone touch me
You are me just six years ago;
More of who I am than I am of me
So I understood why
Your progression would be to leave.
But I felt alright about it
My duty was to save you from me
I walked you to my door but feared closing it
This poet didn’t like the symbolism
I stood in its threshold asking for one more kiss
You stood in my threshold but were able to resist.
I reached for your hand but you passed right through
as I was never tangible;
a figment
just a lazy shadow
caught only in the corner of the eye
So how can anyone touch me
