Poetry: A gentle touch

A gentle touch is all it takes...

To once again feel my heart break

I see you standing at the door...

As you've done so many times before

Asking me to let you in...

To forgive your thoughtless sins...

I know that I should be strong...

That loving you is somehow wrong...

I know that I should make you leave...

As tears fall from my cheek to sleeve...

But once again I let you in...

And once again the dance begins...

A gentle touch is all it takes...

To once again feel my heart break.

    Your little hand touches my nose
    And grabs on to my face




    You trace my features

    A gentle palm aside her face

    Her mothers' safe and warm embrace




    Satin garb against the skin

    An encouraging tap upon her chin

    Like a drop of water on my naked back
    Tip-toeing like a ballerina on my skin
    Chills running down my spine
