Skin Suit

Drilling your fingers

in and under my skin,

you use me as a suit

to claim what is mine.

 

And I am under the impression

that love is patient,

and love is kind,

that your touch is pure

and your methods defined.

 

But you convince me otherwise,

dragging your hands through mine

So it is my finger being pointed.

 

Drilling your fingers

in and under my skin,

you use me as a suit

to claim what is mine.

 

Flowing through my veins

is your presence,

a warming reminder of

your intentions

 

and I'm left helpless,

a suit to be worn and torn,

used to mask a wolf

hunting his next meal

 

Drilling your fingers

in and under my skin,

you use me as a suit

to claim what is mine.
