Darling,
Kiss me like you need
To feel safe
Because my lips want to know
All the places
You have been hurt
So, they can make all the pain drift away.
I was lying beside you
And you had this half smile
Because my hands
Were drifting down your spine.
And you looked at me
And I lost track of everything
Because I realized
Just how badly
I want under your skin.
