Write about hands

Hands

Slender fingers caress my spine
Coming to rest on the small of my back
Goose pimples all over my skin
The power you wield when you stretch out your hand

Tears streaked my face as I read what you wrote
The content was lovely, penmanship exquisite
I felt the love behind every stroke
The power you wield when you stretch out your hand

Tears on my face match the tears on my skin
In a matter of minutes you brought us to our end
Beating on me was not part of the plan
The power you wield when you stretch out your hand
