Harmful Touch

Damaged by just your harmful touch
I lie in pain and anguish from you

I want you to see the hurt felt
That which is caused by you, only you

You’re surely not allowed with me
Never, not ever, not anymore

Russell Sivey

I can feel the pain..The sad thing is most of the time the person who does this can not understand in any way the pain that one feels for whatever reason they are like they are..Thanks for the time spent at my works..Your kind reviews are uplifting..Sara
