Touching You

Touching You It's been going on so long still you don't know it's true. Reaching from so deep in me into the heart of you. Trying to find a way somehow to somehow just be near. Looking for the words to say that you so need to hear. Like stumbling in the dark it seems you can't hear what I've spoken. So I'm reaching deeper still to touch your heart that's broken. Reminding you of happy days through tears that still you cry. Won't you let me touch you there? Won't you let me try? To take the pieces far away oh let me, let me please. Take away the hurt in you that drives you to your knees. For if you could only see in me I know that you will find. I only want to touch your heart the way that you touched mine. Edwin C Hofert
