What did it mean when you touched me that way?
I made myself leave, but did you want me to stay?
Just say the word; You need not be shy
I know that feeling, so I won't ask why
You know who I am; You know what I mean
And I know what you've been through; I know things you've seen
So I know that, like mine, your heart is quite jaded
'Cause most you've let in cared not if your heart faded
But I've never left you--I've always been there
Through times high and low, you always know I care
I'm there after hours, long after last call
I'm there to hold you up, so you don't have to fall
And you're my dear friend--so special in my heart
I've always seen so much in you, from the very, very start
I felt an affinity with you; I saw the you inside
And I just wanted you to know that you don't have to hide
So last night when you held me, were you reaching out?
What is it you're feeling? What's this all about?
It's up to you--I'm giving you the say
Tell me what you meant when you touched me that way

great poem
I loved this! I read the other comment and was surprised that I took something so differnt from it. Maybe I just naturally related it to something I had been through....But to me, it told of friendship on its way to the next level...and one person is saying "hey...just tell me how you feel...Im not going to run away!" ....loved it!

Another beautifully penned write
I hope that your hurting subsides. It sounds like you are a strong person, and want to let this person go, but just keep holding on to the chance that you may be able to resolve something 
Well, that's how it seems to me anyway. Nice write
