Looking back on the time we spent together
I remember who you were to me
What you meant to me
The feelings you sparked in me
The touches I felt from you
But who was I underneath you
Other than a place of comfort
A sense of relief from the loneliness
And sparks of desire
Sometimes I still wonder
If I was ever more
Than meat and bones
Served on a convenient
Plate of bedding
