Palimpsest
Sophie Nov 2022
I sailed so far
from the shores of you
Watched the sunset
Through fragile eyes

Yet here something echoes
Why does his fingerprints
on my thoughts
feel like yours?

Be gentle
Sophie Oct 2017
Be gentle with me, I beg
My skin burns with adoration
Your touch feeds these flames
Pause and breathe
Lungs of hopeful dreaming
I feel safest in the dark
Where I can see
And you get lost in shadows
Fingers search for souls
I am on fire, do you not see
You are cold like ice
