Touch
You can never truly
touch something

nothing is really
quite tangible enough

please don't worry,
because touching is irrelevant,

what matters is how
long you wait,

how long it takes you,
to tell somebody,

you wish you could touch
their heart.

You wish you could literally,
reach through their chest,

grab their organ
and twist.

Twist until,
they finally stop screaming.

Because sometimes touch is delicate,
and sometimes,

touch is extremely
over fantasized.
