Me and the Tin Man

I cuddle so close to his cool metal skin
I feel for him
For he has gone through his share of misery

My family were the ones who cut off his limbs
So he replaced them with tin
Even through my family's tourcher and tourment

He still loves me

His hard matalic lips caress my neck
And his hands move down my spine

My hands to his face
My fingertips freeze at the touch of him
Although my body is warmed by his pressence

I never want to escape from him
I feel so safe
I feel we are in our own world
And no one can break into it

He wraps his arm tighter around me
As if he knows my thoughts

If I could stay in his arms forever
I know everything would change
I could enjoy life
And I could live it

As long as he is by me side
As long as I still have him
As long as I still have my Tin Man
