please don't touch me.
but don't leave me alone either.
i want to feel the soft embrace of you breathing beside
me in bed while i lay there, hand inches away from yours.
let me drown in the slow measured breaths you take,
filling myself up with all the essences of you while i'm awake.
i can't sleep.
i struggle to remember the sound of the clear highway mixed
with the anxiety i felt as i knew that our time was drawing to a close.
don't touch me.
a stray foot crosses over and i touch yours, as if to make sure
that you're still there, still warm.
i can't sleep.
insomnia isn't to blame. i'm afraid that if i fall asleep, somehow,
i'll loose all the time we have left.
touch me please.
hold me close.
and tell me that i'm not alone anymore.
i told you i was an epitaph.
