In Reach

I am as close as
the lines in your fingerprints
and the air you breathe

"I am living a life, i have no wish to live. How did this happen?" Unknown

That is my kind of closeness!--of course, he would have to be a man that I would want to be that close to! lol

The poem was small--but mighty!

Warm hugs and a knowing smile,
