his one touch
and you feel
as though you're worth it
as though you're here
until there's
someone else
with a wink
her soft graze
and you remember
what it means to be alone
so you hide behind
another sip
another pull
another something
trying to fill
a hole
dug deep in your chest
years ago
by someone since forgotten
who never told you
you were beautiful
that you were loved
that you belonged
