Loving the Untouchable
My eyes tear
For a man I cannot touch
My hands are empty
For a walk I craved so much
My mind sees visions
Memories from the past
My heart feels nothing anymore
It remains solid as a cast
A silhouette in the distance
For if you can touch it, the shadow is gone
The scent of a man or woman
Is something that lingers on
Loving the untouchable
Something we all tend to do
It keep our dreams alive
While facing reality too
