Touch

Sorrow is sadness, child

And, misery loves sorrow’s sad company

But, she was so free and wild

I think of love when I think of her

When the summer sun would burn for hours

And, set our heart's on fire

Though, we ignored the fear in our souls

Through our nervous laughter



Touch of evening rose

The setting sun, our silent souls

On the edge of dusk

Two becoming one

One becoming known



Rain fell like curtains

And covered up the beauty of summer time with cold

And, swiftly from the wreckage

Deep within that wretched storm

I, in my hesitation, let confidence erode

Like a mountain side falling

Unlike water on stone

Before I knew what happened, it was too late

She was too gone



Touch of morning sky

The rising water, the terrible toll

Of the darkness taking hold

Two becoming one

One becoming soul



Touch me again

Sincere and deep

With love and heart and truth, indeed

With love and heart and truth and speed
