unfinished 6

[bardiphouka]

You were sacred you were naked
but you held to your virginity
as though it were some deity's
icon for the day

when you left I heard that lovers
uncovered bits of you
that you had me agree
to let stay

I could say that we weren't lovers
like that within our time
but the truth is that would be
just one more fable

the only difference was
within our feast of love
your pleasure was all
that filled the table
