For months
I

Buried
You in the cell walls
Of my skin

Until I
Could feel you in
My blood, pulsating

Hollow cold breaths
We breathed
Together

I remember that fine
California morning
Holding you

To me
In me
Apart of
Me

Stretched so thin
You were
Inside of me

I could no longer take
The pain of you

Trying to break
Free
Until I

Finally had the
Courage to
Set you free

I just hope that
You
Come back to me
