Touchless
Touchless -by Trevor McLeod
I'm totally maniacal
without human touch
Totally deniable
for newcomers such
I've got no more feelings
than what is to much-
love for a drilling
of honorable hutch
So off I go touchless
with love as a rush
Just staying two steps
ahead for the brush
So pity me not
No pity I say
Cause it's love that I pity
while going my way
So off I go touchless
as the poets will say
When the feelings I go through
are moments I say
When it's only to living
that life means so much
When you go on to living
a mother's known touch
