You loved me back then
It seems like years ago now
I wish we could have fixed it
Unfortunately we didn’t know how
Those days I would wake up entwined in you
I could tell no difference between where my skin ended
and yours began
Back when I had a sense of security to come home to
Our love convinced us that we got along
And we often denied the obvious fact
that we were doing this all wrong
I’m sorry I manipulated and played with your heart
And you’re a ******* for cheating on me and tearing mine apart
I still miss those days where I would wake up entwined in you
Unable to distinguish your sweat from mine
My grooves matching your contours
Pressed together so tight
No matter how hard it tried
Air could not escape to take flight
And now I wake to my cold satin sheets
Warmed through the night by one body
One set of skin and sweat
For my new lover to be
I have not yet met.
