Touch Touch pulled away leaving fingertips yearning, burning, stung by rejection, not understanding. In the dark of the room, beside me a space, a warmth on the sheet, empty now. Heart wondering whether to beat or not, hesitates, afraid to try again, then, a rustle in the dark, movement on the bed, and the space between us is empty no more. © w.james beard, jr. december 2006 |

Well done. I could feel the cold spot, and then the relief when the rustle came. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
