Hands
Hands everywhere but where they’re supposed to be
Hearts everywhere but in chests
Clothes everywhere but on
We had planned everything out
Neither of us caring
Both willing to sacrifice our morals to feel good
Friends with benefits was a good idea
We weren’t a relationship
We just wanted sex on the side
No strings attached
Just friends wanting to feel something besides nothing
It seemed like a good idea until he got morals
Until he started to care
Until he realized that he actually wanted to save me
Save the girl with the emotional scars
Save the girl with with the broken heart
Save the girl from parts of herself
I wanted a devil’s advocate
Someone to fool around with
I wanted to lose myself in the process
Because our hands were everywhere
But
Where
They
Were
Supposed to
Be
