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
