Evidence of Me

Her fingers tell me a story,

Of where she's been.

Each layer of skin,

Each particle,

Under each fingernail,

Contains evidence,

That I was there.

Evidence,

That I've felt her hands.

Evidence,

That I've touched her nails,

Evidence,

That I am or was something.

That we are something.

Using this fact,

She should know,

That I know her too well,

To know when she's hiding something.
