Your writing touches me
the words curl around my heart
You pen, but you don't see
that from me you are so far
Something in you reaches me
like a light that twinkles my eye
when I am vulnerable and not looking
the words are inhaled after each heavy sigh
Deep down inside they rest
just waiting until the time
when alone and lonely I sit
clasping a pen, without a rhyme
I am without my own words
just feelings that say too much
So I absorb your haunting words
knowing I'll be without your loving touch
