a hug and a kiss

pearls hide inside oysters like broken toys in closets waiting  for repair

fear within isolation nothing is being found

while smoke curls ride through a cloister forced to become evening prayer

unsubmissive to touch loneliness gets around

can children feel it begin if love never had a start

when eyes are closed no one could ever read this poem

seems incorrigible to some when there is restlessness in the heart

tears in dead of night alone never make a sound

abandoned within misuse affects where a heart can roam

feelings withdrawn because of short hairs in despair

it leads to interaction with emotional trauma on a detached basis

these non existence poor hearts surmount like castles in the air

because their bodies and lips can never remember the sweet memory of a hug and a kiss

too many poor children grow up abused and feral

too wild while only feeling societies troubled referral

Thus is the reality of those whom never feel the nurturing of a hug and a kiss!!Left to roam aimlessly through life, barren of a joy such as this to give to another,,,for if one knows not the joy of recieving how does one experience the joys of giving!

This is beautifully and eloquently written Dylan,for I felt of its pain and loss of something never known.
