You're like a tattoo
but those can be removed
You're like a disease
but some can be cured
You're like that loving text I sent you
but that can be deleted
You're like the people I care so deeply for
but they can be unloved
You're like the skin I crave to touch
but that can be burned
You're like water that I drink
but that can dry out
You're like that song we constantly replay
but that can be reversed
You're like this poem
but this, too, can be unwritten
