i wont come
off on your
fingertips but
i will startle
your dreams
whether found
in the sand or
at the bottom of
your bottle
and i will
be the 'what-if'
that chafes
under your
new-grown nails
when you bite
them back to
the quick and
jump at every
little noise
but most of
all, i will
be the one
who always
comes back
just because you
say that in this
world, people
dont
