Lingering Touches
His rough touches linger on me, nothing I do changes that
No matter how hard I scrub his fingertips still do a crude dance on my skin
I feel his teeth sink into my tender skin, as I scream
His nails digging into me as if he was looking for gold in me
In my most vulnerable state, naked and bare for him to exploit
Lingering touches and sensations that make me want to throw up
Quiet sobs and pleads to the universe to make it stop
Callous calculated touches to taint me, rough hands exploring a foreign body my body
Now, I lay awake tear stained cheeks as his fingertips do their crude dance once again
I want these phantom touches to disappear
But it seems like nothing I do makes them go away
His lingering touches will forever follow me
Haunting me for the rest of my life
