Come Touch Me

by Michael


Come cry with me, come whisper free
Come share the building blocks of mind
Come know the love you've yet to find
And all the happiness to be

Come share with me my many dreams
And art of beauty yet unborn
The heart you see is still unworn
And in it wonders still reside

So many years, so many tears
So many laughs to be unleashed
And echo through your tenderness
Your voice to me is like a kiss

Come feed my mind and feed my heart
It isn't fair to be apart
And feel the turmoil build within
To me you're much more than a friend

Much more in fact if it be known
You've helped me grow and now I'm grown
You've touched me in so many ways
And many ways are still to touch

Though fate may rob us of our sleep
Might lend a helping hand in time
For now, we live our lives in rhyme
And hold back tears we were to weep

Though unexplored our dreams are yet
I'll love and hold you in my heart
And kiss you with my words, my art
And I will long for so much more

Michael~
The tenderness of your heart
is so refreshingly exposed
through gentle writes such as this.

Remarkable, poet.
