Touch Me

Touch me again,
 Like you did then when I least expected.
Gently let your hand slide round me,
 Draw me close.
Lovingly
 the way you once drew her.
I'm not ashamed
 of taking someone else's place.
Don't be afraid 
 of taking his.
There have been others
 in my life too.
I'm not a child
 new to love's embrace.
I'm me
 more human than I want to be
And in love with you
 the man who makes me a woman.

A woman knows love when it comes
What takes a man so long?
