Just a Touch

Hollow being

               Spirals inward

                              Facing oblivion

                                             Eternal separation

                                                            Clawingly grasps

                                                                           Mankind’s single

                                                                                          Greatest tragedy

                                                                                                         Crushing isolation

 

Weeping souls

               Violently flail

                              Rage exposed

                                             Failures bare’d

                                                            Fear alight

                                                                           Consuming life

                                                                                          Charred embers

                                                                                                         Widely scattered

 

While restitution

               Awaits activation

                              Lost opportunities

                                             Before blossoming

                                                                           Soul’s enriched

                                                                                          Reason’s justified

                                                                                                         Love’s affirmed

                                                                                                                        Human touch

 

Imbues within

               Individual hearts

                              Nourishing energy

                                             Prompting salvation

                                                            Manifest ascendancy

                                                                           Easily accomplished

                                                                                          Gentle contact

                                                                                                         Reclaims forlornness
