I wept in
Your arms tonight
And as the
Tears ripped from
The place I
Tried to hide
Them, I found
Comfort in your
Touch, the familiar
Smell of your
Skin
I never
Cried in front
Of you before
Not like this
It was never
Something so raw
And vulnerable until
You saw it
In me tonight
It was always
Out of sight
Out of mind
Out of flesh
But my body
Remembers far better
Than my mind
And it was
Only a matter
Of kisses before
My form dredged
These memories, these
Mistakes out of
My body’s history
