Your Touch One touch and I was gone You had broken through all my walls, My barriers and defenses that kept my heart from knowing joy. With that touch you changed my life and all that I would become. That which I worked so hard to build suddenly came crashing down I was a dead man among the living knowing neither love nor hate. I as I walked my path in loneliness I thought I new my fate. But you changed all that with one touch of your hand. As people sought to change what I was I put up a front I would turn on those who came to close I never knew what life was like, I never even cared. But then you came along and your touch you shared. The chains about my soul were shattered I can now walk among the living Now I may begin to live, to love, to feel again All because of that one touch |

This poem captures the essence of it...the power of one touch to a special someone given at the right time can move mountains...and bring the dead back to life (emotionally and spriritually speaking...that is). Thank you for sharing! Jellybean King |
