every time our fingers lace together,
i am
afraid
because i feel complete,
which is a scary thing to feel when all your life
has been empty, a gaping
hole
and whenever you pull away,
i am
afraid
because this attachment is fatal
and it’s terrifying that you have ruined my life
all while making it
whole
