Like Death's Touch

The one you love—what is she like?
The one whose touch drives you wild—what is she like?
The one you never let out of your sight—what is she like?

The one who has touched the inside of your chest—what is she like?
The one who is the reason for your laughter—what is she like?
The me that lives inside you—what is she like?

I want you to come so close
to me
that I struggle to breathe.

I want you to love me
so much
that I die before you do.
