Touches Me

Touches Me

By Nathan Hannen

I have tried to reach her, But I can't grasp her flailing hand
The continuation of music from the unseen band
The contrast between desert, Sea, And rock, And land
Or those things that touch you, Unforseen and unplanned

A miracle in time, But I can't see her face
Shadowy doubts leap and bound, And leave no trace
The difference is the same, But no winner in this race
I can't see you in my heart, In this confusing place

The End

I'm over any instilled place.....running round a place.....trying to tie my lace....such grace and its emphatic not inside problematic......rumbling in my mind its almost pneumatic.....don't create a place without a lace......some people are too shy to show it......give them a semblance of grace.....always let them tie a lace.

I have not been on here for so long.....been writing ditties and little things ever since.....I'm very proud of this.
