How Do I Touch You?

How do I touch you?
And 'where'...
If I wish.

How do I do this?
To have you know,
Your feelings have not been dismissed.

How can I say I comprehend,
And understand your thoughts.
If you are expecting empathy!
And I wish to share,
Something I've been taught.

How do I touch you?
And 'where'...
If I wish.

How do I do this?
To have you know,
Your feelings have not been dismissed.

We are more alike than not, you know?
So much alike,
I want that to show!

But 'how'...
Do I touch you?
And 'where'...
If I wish.

How do I do this?
To have you know,
Your feelings have not been dismissed.

How do I do this?
And avoid conflict!
