Disappointment
Anger
Mistrust
Apathy
Hopelessness
Lost
Searching
­A shadow
I can’t see your face
I can feel you
A warm hand on my shoulder
A smile behind my back
Soft eyes on my neck
Strong force behind that touch
Safety
Protection
Happiness
Complete
I smile as wide as I can
You make me happy
That subtle lift of the lips
A gleam of teeth
Arms like iron rods
Holding me close to god
Take me away from here
