I want to feel you so close, you become an extension of me
Replacing the festering appendage I had to amputate so messily
Filling up the gaping cavity, sealing in the cracks
Your arms can be the tourniquet to stanch the wound that keeps reopening, the blood that keeps coming back
I may be stuck with this phantom limb, a leftover from the one who wouldn't take my love but took my heart
But that's okay, because you are now a part
Of me
I want you to feel me, feel my heartbeat as it quickens when you speak
I want you to feel the way I'm so fragile, so weak
Fill me, feel me, you make me full, whole, bring me peace, but I love you to pieces
You are so far from me, yet you are my homeland
Can you understand?
Our atoms originated from the same shooting star
It burned up in the atmosphere and we were scattered so far
We will always be drawn to each other, because we were once together
And so we will be again
I promise
