The Shores of Alone

Touch not my heart if you don't care
I am too fragile, don't you see?
Touch not my soul in shallow jest
there's only so much left of me.

Touch not my sadly weeping eyes
if they mean nothing to your heart.
Touch not my body, yearning so
and later tear it all apart.

Touch not my love so bittersweet
with hands of ice, or eyes of steel
Touch not another single part
if nothing that you do is real..

Sandra,
You haven't lost your touch or your perspective. I have missed you and am thrilled to see you writing again.

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Touching, pun not intended.  A delicate and fragile write.

The truth of feelings is so aptly displayed here, Sandra.  The poem flows so well, and actually brought tears to my heart.  Well done, m'lady!   ....jo

Lovely Sandra....gee, you've been missed.
Hugs~

Something tugs at me, I've no doubt of that.
Something from the sea, whichever one I'm near.
When I stray too far from beachland, it calls me back
