I was afraid of losing myself in you.
I was afraid there would not be enough time
To touch all the places that are you
I was afraid you would be afraid of me
My look, my touch
Penetrating so deeply into you
Wanting to wear you like skin
Absorb you into me
Like the evaporation of time
Silent, but unyielding
