The Hand

the Hand
the unknown Hand
i’m frightened
trembling
shaking
i move
toward it
the Hand
the mystery
entangles me
spins my mind
curiosity
attraction
undying
i move
closer
shivering
afraid
i need
the love
i feel
the lust
the Hand
i fear
but i
must know
i need
to learn
the pain
the cry
i scream
i need
i want
i take
a step
emotion
i’m wild
i’m no longer
human
i need
i want
the Hand
it reaches out
for mine.
