Poetry: A gentle touch

by Tina Martin

Created on: April 04, 2009   Last Updated: May 02, 2009

As I sit here and dream

of a man I have seen

In a vision, it was so sweet.

His smile and his eyes,

I feltparalyzed

I could hardly feel my feet.

in a moment I was sure

I had discovered the cure

I waited for, seven long years.

Just one gentle touch

would have done so much

for a heart that is beating inside.

But instead of that touch

That I dreamt of so much,

I'm sitting here, wanting to hide.

For I don't want to change you

but oh how I need to

know that man He said you would be

The one who would hold me,

The one who would lead me,

The one who would set me free.

So get off that couch

And begin to reach out

With that soft gentle touch to my face.

Capture my heart

Like you did once before

Come live a life filled with grace.
