Yes, you’ve touched my body,
but you haven't touched my soul
No, it wasn't deep enough
To make this woman whole
Yes, you've kissed my lips now
but my pain you haven't kissed
these scars that mark my being
Each one, your lips have missed
Yes, you’ve sated cravings
but unsated are my dreams
you've not immersed your being
in thoughts that flow in streams
Yes, you’ve breathed my scent now
but you haven't been perfumed
my fragrant feelings linger
by them you’re not consumed
I lie in the wake of union
I lie here unknown, untouched
my soul a blushing virgin
with robes still tightly clutched
