Skin Deep Sun (Free verse) by Morvium
You got a tattoo there
in the hidden place below your back
that I always longed to touch.
Where once, not long ago
my fingers grazed across in yearning
as our bodies crushed togeather in the moment.
You put a sun there
to cover my dark taint.
Day to kill away the night.
And now you'll always feel it.
A small itching near the base of your spine,
a gnawing under your skin,
at the exact spot where I traced the shape of my heart.
Not to satisfy my reasoning,
but it becomes that nonetheless...
you scarred yourself where I touched you once.
