Deadly Touch

~*~*~*~
Just one touch.
That's all it takes for you to disappear from my life.
Forever.
You tell me that we will find away.
We will be together again.
I hold on to your promises.
We talk and laugh.
Like before.
It's nice.
I forget what a genetically enhanced freak I am when I'm with
you.
I start to feel normal, whatever that is.
But then the reality of the situation hits me like a bullet.
We can never be together.
You saw proof of that tonight.
I could have killed you.
Poisoned lips.
Toxic skin.
Designed just for you.
And it's all courtesy of Manticore.
Signed, sealed, and delivered.
Gotta admit, that was pretty smart of them to use me to kill
'Eyes Only.'
They failed.
You're alive.
But I'm slowly dying inside.
Defeated, I leave.
I'm almost at the door when I remember my jacket. I go to grab
it and then I look up.
You're standing behind a thin pane of glass.
A barrier between us.
You place you hand on the smooth surface and mine automatically
seeks it.
I can feel the warmth of your hand seep through and for a
moment, I think that everything will be okay.
We will find away.
But then the warmth turns to ice.
The moment is gone.
~end~
