Take me back to the time

when I did not require you

to make me feel good.

Take me back to the time

when I did not need your

smiles and kisses and promises.

Take me back to the time

when I did not yearn for your

touch and heat and skin.

Take me back to the time

when I did not think of you

when I was lonely or needed somebody’s heat.

Take me back to the time

when I did not ache for

you, and only you.
