Touch Me
~*Marge Tindal*~

I've loved you for so long.
I have wanted you so.
Touch me gently with a kiss,
just before you go.

Hold me in your arms.
Say things I want to hear.
Touch me gently with a whisper,
softly in my ear.

Caress me with sweet words.
Let me hear your sigh.
Touch me sweetly with a song,
before you say goodbye.

Long before the morning comes,
hold me close to you.
Touch me with your tenderness
the way you always do.

When you are gone I'll remember,
with longing memories,
the way you touched me in the morning,
as soft as a gentle breeze.

While you are away I will wait
with surest destiny.
I will touch you softly when you return
and pull you close to me.

We will begin anew.
Knowing joy beyond compare.
Touch me softly with your love.
Deepest love with you I share.

Very pretty.  Although, in the beginning I felt it a plea of unrequited love, then it seemed it was a wish for love's return after absence from each other.  Is this what was intended?  Just curious if I read it correctly.

Ahhhh !
It is subject to the reader's interpretation -
It will be whatever you want it to be !

Love - coming ~ going ~ returning ~ remaining ~
I think perhaps it is all of those things.

Thank you for the reply, my poet friend.

Margie girl, absolutely excellant, a wonderful delightful and tender read. I love it, as I always do, you have such a gift. Hug and smiles to you, and it is wonderful.
Take care kid

This brings to my the song "Just call me Angel of the morning"

and indeed Marge, you touch all...I only hope that at times, you see the touch, and feel the hugs, that are returned to you many-fold...

I knew by the poster's name, the poem would be beautiful.  But I have to admit...(showing my age) the first thing I thought of when I saw the title was the Who's "Tommy"  "Touch me, feel me......."  sorry, my mind works stranglely sometimes.
You have penned a beautiful poem Marge.
