touch

~fallenriver

Touch has such a weird power. I've been listening to Touch by Daft Punk these last few days and it's been bringing back some memories. ~bartender, may I request a song?

Kiss, suddenly alive
Happiness arrive
Hunger like a storm
How do I begin?

Touch is such a trigger. It makes everything else fade away. Even as an incredibly ticklish person, it makes you forget what lies on the horizon, or sometimes right in front of you. All the problems that need solving, all of them shoved aside by a kiss. Any kind of it, really. Preferably followed by a warm smile. But the problems still need solving. And one can get lost in the temporary island of safe, until the ship can't sail or worse, has already sailed without you. And you're left with the thought:

Touch, sweet touch
You've given me too much to feel
Sweet touch
You've almost convinced me I'm real

When it's gone, you're left with the horrible reality of being numb. All that's left is the memory and the half-forgotten feeling of what was once there.

I need something more
I need something more

~bartender, some beer to go along with this masterpiece of a song, please.

love as a form of escapism, huh.
