Touch me, and remind me who I was"

...based on a poem of Stanley Kunitz

Touch me.


I want to remember who I was.


Brush my cheek


I want to feel the warmth


rising,


like a blushing sun


across my face.


Hold my hand


make me stroll,


slow my frantic gait.


Stroke the sparse


remains of my hair


remind me,


of what


was once--


there.
