Barely Semi Touched

a polite invocation .........................

Barely Semi Touched

Why don’t you wear your smile
again for me today ..
Just this one last time maybe ..
For old times’ sake
and for those who once knew
and loved you ..
I double dare you, wear it now,
light, fine and fair
just like you once wore your
off white overalls
and those small black diamonds
in each ear,
when Jesus, you were nothing
short of fucking perfect ..
Yes indeed, how strange it seems
to resurrect
these now ancient marriage vows
between
those living and the dead ..
And although still so very loved,
in truth,
you can only now be barely
semi-touched,
and felt and found in crypts,
cold corridors
and similar places of dark worship ..

Gosh Neville words fail me, for this is achingly sad. If only we could lift the veil for a moment. What an amazing write and tribute to the love you hold so dear. I am so sorry ❤️ Love and hugs x

I really am most grateful for your visit Gwen .. Yes absolutely, lifting the veil would be a fine & fitting thing, but try as one might, that bloody veil weighs a ton doesn't it .. but then, you know that all too well .. x
