The hug, the smallest space, yet vast and wide,
Contains the greatest feelings deep inside.

A symbol of love, need, and joy’s embrace,
Of fear, desire, and life’s most tender grace.

It’s where the body and the soul entwine,
A sacred touch, a moment so divine.

To cast your pain and burdens all away,
In arms of love, let anguish go astray.

Within that hold, as time begins to cease,
A fleeting pause of warmth and inner peace.

Though brief, its power lingers in the heart,
The hug’s small space makes wholeness never part.

In such embrace, no matter what we show,
We’re children still, with hearts that overflow.
