Lilac winter skies My warm skin against cold fists Handprints left on me Purple finger prints Embedded into my arm That's how you showed love Loved you in the fall Was scared of you by winter Stayed until summer Science has told me In seven years, I'll have skin Never touched by you Patiently waiting For the day filled with relief That will never come

Lilac winter skies My warm skin against cold fists Handprints left on me Purple finger prints Embedded into my arm That's how you showed love Loved you in the fall Was scared of you by winter Stayed until summer Science has told me In seven years, I'll have skin Never touched by you Patiently waiting For the day filled with relief That will never come
