12:04 p.m. - October 16, 2007 Touch
Sometimes I lay in bed and gently trail the fingers of my left hand over my right arm like a lazy hand cutting through water and only then I'm soothed, until I remember it's just me.
A lifetime of avoiding being touched has left me yearning even for the intimacy of a handshake, a hug, to touch and be touched.
Touch somebody today and know I wish I could be you if just for that moment.
