No, I've never touched you in the ways of lovers Or in the ways that awe stricken girls might Yearn to be pressed against your hands But if it makes them let you next to me I will say that your fingers dug into my rib cage And rolled around my aortas until I was screaming Softly as if someone had tested the noises I could make in that moment when my adrenaline Pulses through my veins and you pinch My blood until it would clot under your nails. I will happily say that my legs wrapped Around your waist and my lips held yours I will tell them about your hands behind your head And mine gripping at your wrists. If it would mean I could have you again, I would lie and say that my fingers Grasped at your core until you smiled like I imagine you would and your eyes would Close under my soul that you would have Tugged out by threads found in my folds Regarding my mind, I mean, But if they would be okay with that lie I would not mean the folds of my mind, Rather the folds of my being. They said I was lying to someone and that They hoped it was you, but the lies I say would Happily be for them if you got to touch me In a lovers way years from now when It wouldn't even matter, because you have Touched my soul in a way a lover never could And my heart is waiting to be warmed by Your soft and inviting hands.
