She Touched Me

I was 43 the first time.

I was 43.

43 the first time someone really touched me.

43 when I felt what it was like for someone to touch me.

To touch me with love.

To touch me without judgment.

To touch me without hurting me.

I was 43 when I was touched for the first time.

No questions.

No reservations.

No holding back.

She touched me.

Wholly. Completely.

She touched me.

I was 43 the first time.
