Contact Is Hope

Walk with me, although your hand
Extends through strands of wire
Beaded with thorns; be careful now
But let us walk

Talk with me, although your words
Must pass through cords of steel
Binding these limbs; be careful now
But let us talk

Sing with me, although your song
Sounds faint through walls of stone
Keeping us apart; be careful now
But let us sing.

I love the sentiment of being together yet kept apart. Very romantic. <3
