on nights as this
the futility of words
becomes most evident

no combination
of letters and syllables
could justly convey
the long
for quivered lips
of warm embrace
her touch

no written word
or verse
could ever impart
the suffer
of life without

Somehow you did manage to find the letters and syllables to convey your feelings...

(big hugggsssssss) However, you did manage to express much poignant points here, dearest friend, there may not be a particular word to describe the drivel but you so very well get to the heart of the matter! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Raphael, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

The yearning to touch is so perverse that it can even be met through words.

Sometimes touching and not having is worse than not touching at all...

But I know what you mean..
