Tango Lessons – The Embrace (written at start of C-19)
The touch of another hand
The breath of another lung
The beat of another heart
The energy of another soul
The heat of another body
The embrace of another
The longing for a person's touch
The exchange with another soul
The imprint left on my soul, in my heart
...of being held
...of being seen
...of being felt
What I once took for granted
given freely...
And received whole-heartedly...
has been taken away
the loss of my basic connection
now grieving.
To the day that I can once again hold another person
To receive their warmth
To give my love
To feel their breath
To communicate without words
To be in the embrace.
