Touch Not

5 1 1
                                    

Fingers reach out
Touching, embracing but never being
Whole, satisfied
Touch not the unclean thing
How many times have I been burned?
Touch not and I will receive you
Will you receive me this time?
My fingers are reeling in
Agony, torture
You reach out and touch my hand
I smile
As I'm made whole in Your embrace
