Some people are like a second skin.
*******************

For as long as I live
I’ll remember to give
you my love … you’re my air.
I breathe you.
Without any contact
my life seems to contract.
I choke when you’re not there.
I breathe you.
Day and night, wherever,
for you I endeavor.
You have to know I care.
I breathe you.

With mercy, devotion,
I swallowed loves’ potion,
bound to you forever.
I breathe you.
In this soup, living mire,
you’re my only desire.
Who bound us … was clever …
I breathe you.
My body yearns for you—
nobody else will do.
I will leave you … never—
I breathe you.

When storms around me rage,
you’re my shelter, so sage.
My heart is your home, dear,
I breathe you.
In my bed nightly lay,
during daylight … come what may.
Though you may not be near,
I breathe you.
I am yours totally--
loving you completely.
How we’ll be isn’t clear …
I breathe you.
