I Could

I could
touch you
in words
but it wouldn’t
be near enough
you need to be
pulled close
where breath warms
and air tingles
in things said
and unsaid
where lashes
curl to
no distance
unable to
find when
you started
and I ended

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