Business as Usual

Your hands are cool and slightly rough, but when you run your fingers across my skin I melt.
And when I look into the window of your soul, your bright eyes see me-
And it feels like eons since I have truly been seen-
But the baggage we both have is enough to sink a ship,
And the risk of what your touch proposes would capsize entire households.
