i want to love you so much but my throat pulls me back and closes before i can get the words out. and i want to hold you in my arms. we can drift off to sleep together. but sometimes my fingers whisper to me, they tell me not to touch you. i'll touch you when your tongue is no longer bleeding and your skin no longer tears.
