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 knew 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 |

That one touch......yes....if the touch be that of true love then by all means built your life back up. Sometimes all we need is a touch.   I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I'm in love with my shadow I admire it daily |

This poem was awesome...I can't even express in words how great this poem is. I know what you felt when your "wall" came down. I have wrote quite a few poems concerning this but you have captured it all in this one poem. Your an awesome writer, keep up the good work! "Don't take love for granted...once it's gone, it hurts." |

I loved the way it flowed I read it from the start like it's suppose to be read in old english style simply beautiful "So long as men can breathe or eyes can see, So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S. |

I really like this poem. I have had this happen to me too. I know what it's like. You have all your barriers up and then it takes that one person to knock them all down and teach you how to really live. Before them, you weren't really living cuz you couldn't really love. Great poem and keep writing! <3~*Rachael*~<3 *we can't become what we need to be by remaining what we are* |
