Love Poem: Contact Is Hope

Written by: John Blake

Contact Is Hope

Walk with me, although your hand
Extends through strands of wire
Beaded with thorns; be careful now
But let us walk

Talk with me, although your words
Must pass through cords of steel
Binding these limbs; be careful now
But let us talk

Sing with me, although your song
Sounds faint through walls of stone
Keeping us apart; be careful now
But let us sing.
