There is nothing as tender as a grandmother's touch, but to me it is as if I am being burned by fiery coals. My parents embrace me to say hello, goodbye or see you soon, but to me, a simple words are more then enough. The touch, whether romantic or hateful or not with any explanation at all, stays with me for days, weeks, months, years even. I think of the people who touched me and I cringe, I think and I wonder why I am so opposed to affections. But then I remember, I am not like the others. For I, I am addicted to the feeling of feeling pure and clean.
