TOUCHED

I remember looking with longing 
At that place left empty 
In the corner of my little world… 

But it was never empty. 

You were always there 
Sitting quietly 
Your hands cradling my heart 
With stars spilling out of you 
Drenching me 
In all the love that I ever needed 
Healing me 
With all the scattered fragments 
Of your soul 
That I knew never belonged to me 

In the gentle touch

Of your misty soft embrace
I never once felt alone.
