linger

I ripped the skin off my fingers, I didn’t want a fingerprint that had touched you to linger. You could never deserve the feeling that my fingers could grace your skin, spat out your kisses as if I didn’t love the taste of toxicity that dribbled down my chin. Never known a love to stay, they always crack and crumble to my dismay.
