skin by Emily G Myersa hand
eager to touch
to recall the feel
of his skin
soft
silent
under my breath
motionless thought
focused to remember
every goosebump I created
and the silk
of the skin
of the boy I touched
lost in thought
my face pushes against my hand
what did it feel like?
he moved the hair out of my eyes
followed with his finger
an invisible line
straight to my heart
followed with his lips
an invisible line
created by a finger
a smile
that leads to my heart
he's still there
seeing through my eyes
walking in my shoes
still inside me
and I'm left to recall
eagerly
without motion
the feel of skin
his and mine
