They liked my touch
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
I touched his genitalia
It was as soft as a newborns hand
He was to be my husband
But he didn't understand
Although he became impotent
My touch was his command
And commanded he a child
Who held my finger so
A grip as light as angels
Who could contain its glow
And when I reached out my touch to all I know
I remembered who had liked my touch
And who would never know.
