for sake of a touch

never before
   at least to my knowledge
in all my years
   have I ever felt such an ache
      emptyness
         longing

yet that which I want
   which I need
is that which I fear most

simple
   yet deadly

without all the cutesy online fakery

   I could sell my soul
for a true
   authentic
      no-strings-attached

hug
