i want hands..

..hands that trace the lines
   and
     crevices of my body
        hands that love me.

hands that mold
    hands that create
       hands that nurture
         hands that surprise me

powerful hands, loving hands
    hands that lift me up
       hands that can carry me
          (if necessary)

i want forgiving hands
    honest hands
       soft hands
          hands that whisper
             listening hands
                hands that are free

hands that aren't afraid to be led at times
   hands that i can grow old with
     hands that want to grow old with mine
        hands that hide no spaces
hands that i love

yes, i want that.
