Here we are again <br />A year after we took leave of each other <br />In the same bed <br />Like time never changed our love, nor tore it asunder <br />Why have we not been able to find this in anyone else? <br />I hold you like a child would <br />Protecting their most cherished possession <br />Should I feel more guilty for taking you away from her? <br />But you feel like mine <br />You are my hands, my voice, my laughter <br />My comfort, my lust and my love <br />You are a warm body, <br />To distract me from pain <br />That power scared you once <br />Where will this lead? <br />Will you keep me bound to you? <br />Until I fall apart <br />Because you keep taking part of me when you go… <br />My hands, my voice, my laughter <br />My comfort, my lust and my love <br />Until I am left alone <br /> <br /> (2/27/05)<br /><br />Meredith Fahey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/liar-you-make-of-me/
