UNDER MY SKIN

Under My Skin In the dark of my room I feel you breathing slow Silence wrapped around me But I already know You’re written on my skin Like heat that never fades Even shadows in my bed Still carry your shape I reach without touching Call you without sound My body in the city But my soul’s still on the ground You’re still under my skin Still under my skin Still under my skin I can’t let you in You’re still under my skin Still under my skin Still under my skin Where do I begin? Midnight on the ceiling Your echo on the wall Even my cat watches Like she hears your call Dreams turn into fire Your touch inside my head I wake up wanting more From someone who’s not there Close to me Inside of me Haunting me Saving me Under my skin Under my skin Under my skin You’re still within Under my skin
