You came to me as a wolf and laid down your head on my stomach
I felt you sigh about me
That night you held me in your arms
So tight that my knuckles turned white in your hands
Sing me a lullaby baby
Make me feel at home
I miss you now maybe badly
But feel still that I’m alone
The shadows on my walls turn grey in bitter regret
That I never met you in person
That I never can seem to forget
All the nights in sleepless chatter
I told you all my secrets
And now without you to hold me
I sleep in my own caress
But I miss you
Terribly
Like a foot without a shoe
I don’t need you but wearing you around keeps me tender
Protects me from the ground
Sores in place of kisses
Blisters ripe from stones
I wander the streets without you
Trying to find my way home.
