Don’t measure my love by the brush of a hand, For scars of the past still quietly stand. It isn’t rejection, it isn’t the cold, It’s stories of trauma my silence still holds. I bloom in connection that’s steady and true, In words that run deeper, in souls I see through. Love isn’t in gestures that vanish too fast— It’s roots intertwined, it’s a bond built to last.

More Than a Touch
Don’t measure my love by the brush of a hand, For scars of the past still quietly stand. It isn’t rejection, it isn’t the cold, It’s stories of trauma my silence still holds. I bloom in connection that’s steady and true, In words that run deeper, in souls I see through. Love isn’t in gestures that vanish too fast— It’s roots intertwined, it’s a bond built to last.
