lo·​tion

You could touch my skin.

My back, my neck, my forearms.

But they can't touch you back.

Can't trace your worry lines

Or mirror the path of your affection,

Knotting closer when you smile

So I'll always carry lotion

Make my hands softer than my forearms,

My neck, my back.

If it means you'll reach for them more.

Whooaa, this is so intimate and beautiful. (Also, can relate re: needing lotion all the time...) -LS

Pursuing radical honesty, is that bad

This is for me. 
But I hope you
like it too. 

Wanna chat or debrief? I love that crap.
