Today I recognized an essential part of who I am. The moments when I feel most vulnerable…a big fight, a breakup, a confrontration. Telling the absolute truth. The pain of rejection, heartbreak, or betrayl….it is in these moments that I crave touch. My body aches to be hugged, to lay next to a loved one, to hold hands, to touch cheek-to-cheek. To hear the whisper of a soft word on my ear.
Right now all I want is to lay in a dark room next to someone that loves me. To let the tears of stress and confusion release, taking comfort in the feel of a warm body next to mine, wrapping their arms around me and letting me know that everything is going to be all right.
