Don'T Touch Me
Some people touch
With their hands
With their minds
With their heart
With their eyes
Some with lies
Some with goodbyes
People are touched
By a gesture
A song
A poem
Someone else's despair
Some don't care
Some never dare
"That was touching."
"She touched me."
"Touch me for luck."
Phrases that really say,
"I don't give a F____K!"
PLEASE don't touch me
Walk away
Don't look back
Sit alone in darkness
Until you forget what I look like
Forget my smell
My walk
My voice
and my smile
Question your love
"Why can't I remember her?"
Feel guilt
It's OK
Until desperation sets in
Then close your eyes
Ask God to help you remember
That special something
That made you feel so good inside
So needed
So touched
MY TOUCH
At that moment
You will know I am there
Your body will shiver
Your eyes will water
Your heart will pump my blood
Because I am inside you
I am you
We don't have to touch
BECAUSE WE ARE ONE
