'Touching You' 

 

I don't have to touch you

to be touching you.

Nor feel your face

to feel your face.

 

Sometimes touching you

I feel you not at all.

 

There seems to be

so much of you at times

enough to fill

and spill across a room.

 

Other times

I stretch in your direction

and draw back to me

great armfuls of air.
