a delicacy

i remember
when your
calloused palms
would run over my skin
that you treated as if it were
made of porcelain—
as delicate as china.

i mimic the gesture
with my own hands
yet all i find is
broken pieces

i try to piece them
together again
but there's missing pieces,
i'm missing you and your touch and your everything.

come
back
and
fix
me
