To Feel The Touch To feel the touch of truth you must take a look inside Into those places that you really wish you could hide Peer into your heart and ask the questions you need Look into your soul, of your answers take good heed Don’t tell yourself a lie, just face up to what you know There before you are the answers they’re there on show The only reason to lie about your feelings being true Is because you know all the truth as clearly as I now do To feel the touch of beauty you must open your eyes It’s there in the butterflies’ wings, in the breath of sighs It’s carried in the breeze wrapped in a mermaid’s song You see it in the starlight that gleams all night long Don’t fool yourself that what you need is just a kiss Because you know that what you really need is this The only reason you would lie to yourself about me Is because you know that love isn’t ever really free To know the touch of angels you must open your heart Unless you’re too frightened of seeing this love start I wouldn’t blame you if you were a little shy of this It can be scary to feel the wonder wrapped in a kiss Unless you’re willing to look into the face of my soul Don’t ask me to give you my heart to become whole The only reason to lie about how you feel for me Is because you are scared by loves’ amazing beauty Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Excellent! Yes, we must open our senses and listen and learn to be able to feel the touch of truth, the touch of beauty, the touch of love, the touch of life. We all can do it if we can all believe in ourselves! Excellent poem, dear friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |
