My 6th haiku in this challenge is inspired by the Righteous Brothers' Unchained Melody. Reaching #4 on Billboard's Hot 100 upon its 1965 release, the movie Ghost revived its fame a quarter of a century later and sent it soaring to #1 in 1990. It's a great song to listen to whenever you're in a melancholy mood.
A touch hungered for
A time always remembered
Please touch me again.
