If I am your baby, please touch me
I need your touch in ways you may never know
Don’t just wash and change and feed me
But rock me close, kiss my face and stroke my body
Your soothing and gentle ways says security and love.

If I am your child, please touch me
Though I may resist, even push you away
Persist, find ways to meet my needs.
Your goodnight hug helps sweeten my dreams
Your daytime touching tells me how you really feel.

If I am your teenager, please touch me
Don’t think that I am almost grown
I need to know that you still care
I need your loving arms, I need a tender voice
When the road gets rocky, then the child in me still needs.

If I am your friend, please touch me
Nothing lets me know you care than a warm embrace
A healing touch when I’m depressed assures me I am loved
And reassures me that I am not alone
Yours maybe the only comforting touch I get.

If I am your sexual partner, please touch me
You may think that your passion is enough
But only your arms hold back my fears
I need your tender reassuring touch
To remind me I am loved just because I am me.

If I am your grown-up child, please touch me
Though I may have a family of my own to hold
I still need Mummy and Daddy’s arms when I hurt
As a parent the view is different
I appreciate you more.

If I am your ageing parent, please touch me
The way I was touched when I was very young
Hold my hands, sit close to me, give me strength
And warm my tired body with your nearness
Although my skin is worn wrinkled, it loves to be stroked.
