Touch — Something Beautiful

Touch — Something Beautiful

A precious act,
A feel that makes you feel alive,
Conveys emotions,
Redirects hormones,
& increases breath.

Touch is an essential thing for most of us. These few days, getting lost in my own mind garden made me realize how important touch is for everyone. We experience the sensations of touch all day long — but really watching your sensations as the touch is happening is a sort of blissful thing.

Part 1 — What touch made me realize

It’s touch that made me realize I am alive.
It’s touch that made me feel warm,
It’s touch that made me feel closer.
It’s touch that made me feel more of me to myself.
It makes me realize how things are perceived,
It made me more conscious of the present,
removing all other thoughts and making me blissed out.

Part 2 — Touch defined

Touch can be a surprise sometimes.
Touch can be scary sometimes,
Touch can be nasty sometimes,
Touch can be pleasing sometimes,
Touch can make you feel wonderful to insecure.

Part 3 — The touch of love

It made me feel the way I had never felt,
It made me think the way I never thought.
Her hands rolling over mine,
makes me forget all about time.
Even though we sit far away facing each other,
It is touch that makes us feel closer.
I feel her soul inside me,
I feel her weight over me,
Leaning to say words,
Forgetting the pain she has on her heart.
Forgetting the thoughts I have about the world,
Making a fusion, a connection that can never be brought, someone close like this.
Never have I heard a song play on itself — inside me.
Well, I do not know how long she will stay,
How long the touch will make its way,
but I am certain of one thing —
all these moments of her, me and our touch,
will be one of the beautiful,
one of the sacred,
one of the best, the only one,
moments of all years and days.
