It surprises me because I never imagined that touching someone’s face could be such an intimate and meaningful act, especially between two people who were not romantically involved.
I didn't tell her that. Maybe I just don't understand poetry.I admit it's not the first thing I reach for when I pick upsomething to read

In the poem, she recalled his fingers and the waythey had moved around over her face.
Maybe it’s remembering to her to recall every touches from the blind man. I think it’s hard for a person to recall such concrete memory from a trauma.
