Until your touch I had lost all belief The smile I strived to share Just concealed grief With no light source Respite from endless night Was just a cherished dream Beyond my plight All cries for help Fell on ears of the deaf Tomorrow’s meaningless When no hope’s left But miracles Are more than fairy tales Such changes can occur When love prevails I can’t explain The wondrous sensation Your strong arms provided My salvation If you question Why I need you so much I never really lived Until your touch |

ms suthern, they say the touch is almost a metal feeling the first time..something jagged that leaves little pricking holes of want more..enjoyed your work here |

![]() (big huggies) Oh Suthern, this made me tear up reading because I believe this resonates as a personal anthem to many as it does to you, and I can certainly relate to this wholeheartedly..........as I went so long distant from social life, yet silently suffered for so long, because all I really wanted was to be touched........spiritually, physically and compassionately.........and I too never feel like I really lived until this year, and that is why I feel reborn and there's this unimpeachable bliss I've never felt before in my heart through all the social connections and risks I've made and taken! (huggies) I'm sooooooooooo happy that you, too, have been touched and live with sensation and wonder, my friend, bless you wholeheartedly! ![]() XOXO, Lisping Hibiscus "If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other" |
