touch me; and when you're done, touch me harder
make me lose my breath; we haven't been getting along lately anyway
kiss me; my tongue's aching for anything other than the taste of painkillers
make me sweat; i need to get rid of the weight sitting inside my chest
make me scream; i've been too afraid to shout the truth for a few months now
make me bleed; i've been looking for a sign to show me i'm still alive
