The child in me

Posted on Updated on

More than anything in the world
I would simply love to be hugged
Letting all the pleasant emotions of happiness unfurl
Escaping all the dense layers of negativity, with a simple shrug

I want to be embraced without awkwardness
In a spur of moment, with no hesitation
It would be good to lean into someone with the intent to express
The deep crushing desire for comfort; for consolation.

    Have you seen Temple Grandin.Her way of being hugged was surely lacked the human element of awkwardness …found myself thinking about it :-p
