I wish I could flow through your veins like blood
and you would be able to feel me inside of you
you’d wonder aloud “What’s that feeling pumping in my heart?”
it would be me, mingling and dancing with red and white blood cells

I wish I could cover you completely like skin
and all around you would be the cocoon of myself
you’d wonder aloud “Why am I so very warm in my skin?”
it would be me, protecting and wrapping you into sleep
