You are my home.

I can still see your shadows in my room,

shoving me against a bed and kissing me like I was your only source of Air.

I can still feel your hands,

running up and down my sides- telling me to relax. 

I can feel your breath against my neck,

telling me it will all be okay. 

I remember the first time I met you,

and I quickly let you into my life. 

I let you have things I have never given no man before. 

Some things that I can not ever get back. 

I can still feel you,

laying beside me, and arms wrapped around me so tight. 

You felt like heaven,

a place I never thought I would be. 

Your arms are a place I'll forever long to be. 

I want you.

no,

more like need you. 

I can still feel your touch,

so gentle yet rough at the same time. 

I think I can feel your touch forever,

it's in my bones. 

I want you in my life forever,

please don't ever leave me. 

The day you leave is the day I lose a sense of myself.

I will lose a part of my mind,

body,

soul, 

and heart. 

I can still see your silhouette at the foot of my bed,

sitting in some old wooden chair. 

Your presence is there,

and I wish it to never leave. 

Your memory keeps me safe at night,

and warm. 

It makes me feel cozy, 

it makes me feel at home.
