Searching me looking
over me through me like
something was missing or
something stolen
Dusting me with powders
to trace any fingerprints
from a heated touch
passions retreat
Even had a search
a warrant said it
gave them the right
to look and search
everything and
everywhere
I asked what they might
be looking for, but they said
they would know when they
found it
Next thing I know they
were staring at me all looking
at me like I had murdered
someone, haunting me
with their stares
I asked what was wrong they
said they found what they were
looking for I said what
and they said I was in the clear
all they found was evidence
of love
