your family
lets me stay in the cabin
with them
im upstairs on a cot
a wooden railing
looking down at the kitchen
when your hand
reaches up to rub
my arm and wake me
i groan
hey honey, its morning. wanna lay on the couch with me? you say.
i crawl downstairs
and we lay on the couch together
i fall asleep
with your arms wrapped around me
i wake and fall
wake and fall
you smell manly
and feel warm
since i moved away
no one has held me like this
my arms craved your skin
and i was hallowed out
without your touch
im scared
scared
of leaving you
because all i want
is to stay
forever
