Finger Tips & Love

Magical and inspiring

All my heart lies in the tips of my fingers

 

The memories of where they've been

The hearts they've traced

The skins they've ached to dance against

 

The language in which they speak

A language in which they are fluent

A language that is foreign and ever adaptive

 

So much sensory intake

So much motor output

All in the most neglected place

 

Finger tips left neglected

For actions of rushed intentions

 

All that is needed is to hod my hand

All that is wanted is a warmth

A fire that won't die when the night gets too cold

 

I don't need the wind through my hair

I don't to be exhausted by emotion

I just need to feel that my heart can still race

 

I just want a circulatory high

I want something no money can buy

I want the euphoria that no drug can provide
