Of Innocence

For all the lovers that I have never had
And for all that fantasies are formed of
For all is anchored by tenuous thread
In a life travelled by the ways of love
For in faithfulness I have made my vows
And in admission my mind's not kept them
My body still remains faithfully though
A thought of lovers' kiss is tempting

So would I smote away imaginings
That appear to me each night to whisper
Would I become more of a woman then
Would the censured thought be any better?
Perhaps the secrets I personally keep
Are special and wondrously just for me
For in this woman's inner world I sleep
My heart remaining quite innocently
