just let me touch her

By SourInnocence

In the crowded room she stared at her, Her eyes screamed her desire.
She had touched her last night, in more ways than one.
She wanted to touch her now but she couldn’t reach her.
Even if she could the public would not approve.
They label love taboo if it’s different. And she wants to break every rule in the world to be able to touch her again. But with tables and ignorance between them she suffered the space of love. And all the while dreaming of the smooth lips that had tasted her own, and the hands that gently soothed each ache. Her heart said run to her, knock every table on its side and let them call it taboo. Just let me touch her.

    to deny the heart is a crime within itself...to hell with society and its prying eyes...i say love passionately whom ever you love and be happy in knowing that the rest lack your courage ~kristy
