Touch My Heart


Notice how some women
touch your body
but they don't really
touch your heart?

There's a space
between want & need
A distance between
require and desire
And a world
of difference
between lust
and love.

Yes, there is, dear James, and how nice it is when it is a man to know the difference!

Very wise thoughts.

A thought-provoking piece!

Men are strange, or maybe not all men and not only men.
I always wondered how it's possible to want someone whom you don't love.

I suffer so by and by the truth this poem conveys! It takes a firm grip to rip ones heart out! Maybe I should have guarded my heart more! But than I would have betrayed myself! No! It is her heart now!
