The Missed Touch
Please view large.
© 2009 Danilo Lejardi
Just ordinary life, at one of those intimate situations we have to face _ or will have to _ at some time. It is the moment before contact is established, or perhaps re-established….
Although I had a particular experience in mind, I suspect it could describe other circumstances and feelings. I’m not trying to get you to guess what I experienced, but rather to explore the range of situations and emotions this image can apply to. So, can you imagine a real life situation like the one I depicted or the associated emotions?

Something rang deep in my psyche looking at this image and the male….his back looks familiar ….... and then I was surprised to see that catherine above had the same feeling!!

Quizás….
la piel se vuelve telaraña.
Quizás….
la mano del amor perdido se congela..
quizás… las sombras hablan..
Quizás…
pero no recuerdo ensoñando este ensueño.
Aunque sí….la carne se vuelve telaraña..
y el alma también…
cuando se añora….que le toquen.
Rosa (precioso Danilo..y me gusta lo que has escrito, y la profunda melancolía de la figura yaciente….y sus eternos reflejos. )
Danilo Lejardi replied
Y me alegra mucho que te haya gustado e inspirado; me animas a seguir explorando estos sentimientos. Gracias, de corazon.

Danilo….this is sooooooooo THOUGHT provoking…....I love how it makes me THINK and FEEL…. I love how you can SEE her from different angels through the MONITORS or Screens….and how she is so aliveeeeeee and even it seems though she has a power of some sort…yet she is in this COLD and LIFELESS place…....but I wonder if she had been there earlier…..this place and HIM, would still be full of LIFE…is her touch TOO late….or will it bring him back to life??? hmmm…very COOL and story telling image! :)) Love this! xx
Danilo Lejardi replied
Oh Jacqui! I decided to create this image by giving the female figure the “touch” power. But what would you think if I´d inverted the roles. Would it still be working? Thanks a lot; I´m glad you´ve commented on this one.
jacqleen
hmmm…interesting twist here!!! I know I can’t speak for all females out there, but for me….I know “His” touch would work as well…................I think we all NEED that special touch that makes US feel alive again…even if we do feel dead inside!!! again, LOVE LOVE your MIND and VISION! :)) xx
Danilo Lejardi replied
thanks again, jacqui! I´d like to see more of your amazing photography o the next days!!!

When I approach your gnarled precepts..
like webs of killer smiles
you let me go
you said no
≈
bits of your boyhood came rushing in
almost touched
almost calm
I’ll be carefree and let you see
≈
Baby, it’s only me.
≈
tanks of metal sighs
quintessential Goodbyes
All arriving at one conclusion
you need the spiders delusion
≈
deep longing has called the boy missed
feather lace and leather fingertips
Almost Touched
Almost calm
I’ll be carefree and let you see
≈
Baby it’s only me.
≈
Missed.

Gosh, I’m loving your ability to build drama into a scene that the viewer interprets for themselves.
This one is so very thought provoking. For me, I think he’s caught in a web—her web! ;)
Vicki Ferrari
Yes, I can, and thank you Danilo, your image has reached in and grabbed my soul and given it a big twist…. fave!

WOW THIS IS INTENSE….
REMINDS ME OF MY OWN JOURNEY AND WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO LIVE WITH DISABLING RELAPSES IN MY ILLNESS.
THE LONELINESS, THE MISS OF A FRIENDS HUG OR TOUCH…
THEY SAY AFTER INFANTS ARE BORN IF THEY ARE NOT TOUCHED OFTEN ENOUGH THEY WILL FAIL TO THRIVE AND EVENTUALLY DIE…
