you do not love her
you love what she can offer you
but you do not love her
you don't know her
you don't know her mother's name
and you don't want to know.

you want to feel her skin
but you don't want what's underneath it
you want to trace her figure
but not enough to know the meaning of her tattoos
or the scars you touch without realizing it.

she wants to love you
she wants to know you
she wants to know your mother's name
she wants to know the meaning of your scars
she wants to feel your skin and everything that is deeply hidden beneath it.

but you don't know her
you don't know anything about her
you don't know that every time you look into her eyes
they are hungry for love
begging to be known
Begging to be loved.
