Tactile
tattoo touch
feel my ink (touch me)
dig in deep (hurt me)
chills (make me moan)
luxuriously lifted

Shh stay quiet
don't let anyone
in.

Cat scratches
claw marks and
old souls
you and I

plagued and incessant
goodbyes
just as we said our hellos.

Shall we leave it at that or prolong this passion
because I'm a selfish *****
but a lovely babe

licking up your spine
and misplacing the remnants of time
tugging at the hair on your head
trying to find my way to the depths of your mind.
