TOUCH ME

Poem Commentary

After going through a real rough time
of not being held hugged or kissed
due to a marriage separation
it was if i was going to die literally.

TOUCH ME

hard is life
not having you
to share deep moments with

your skin calls to me
touch me please
or I die the slow death

slowly the sun darkens
the light of life
we cling with fingers
of hunger

to fill the empty heart.

I love this write as I once heard that if there is no touch for a baby then he or she will not be able to develop. So I loved the picture. Have you heard that too? In all regards, I love it. Not too long and not too short. A perfect 10!

TYVM Carynontherhine. Actually I have known that babies will die if they are not held and can be really messed up in the brain from no sort of contact or stimulation.

Thank you for your comment.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
