The desire of
a touch -
is to simply lose
itself

in the fabric of your skin.

I brush your cheek,

And
  fall

Lost within a touch.

Hi Karilea!

The closest I can possibly say is...it's the experince of "God...touching God." Sometimes a touch is a homecoming. The concept of "you, I, us, them" is absent.

We forget ourselves in this touch...and in the process...we find ourselves...as something...more.

As of a single thread wakes in the silken dream of a blanket...and remembers..."This is who I am."

Love,
Eric

it is not something
that can be felt
in the physical
as an act or rite
of passage but a sense
of home and belonging
with a look of deep sea
from one sight to another
and mouth to breath to
touch of tranquil
belonging

Eric, I know exactly what you mean
and am stealing this as my own
for me and my love
*smile*
Absolutley beautiful
xxoo

And this touch, Eric, is found in your words.  I have read this several times as well as your reply to Karilea.  I believe I have gotten hold of your wisdom.  Thank you for this.

"Sometimes a touch is a homecoming"

Yes.

I think I need to talk to Kit about getting a smiley hitting a nail on the head...

This, I understand.

Thank you, Eric.
