Virginity
Today I decided
To bring company
To my mandatory session
Of therapy
I hope this poem
Doesn’t offend
Anybody who decides
They want to read
This topic may be a bit
Touchy or confusing to some
Who like to sit and pretend
Or play dumb
What if you have never
Had control over loosing
Your virginity
What about the girls
Who had it taken unwillingly
What about the chesters
Who plot times and wait
And resolve to touch
And never penetrate
Should a girl call herself
A virgin
Even if she doesn’t feel like
She still has her virginity
What about the boys
Who swear in secrecy
To the archdiocese and priestly men
What about the girls
Who are sold into sexual
Slavery
What about the family friends
Who take prizes from children
Too costly for them
What about the moms
That remember in infancy
The horrible atrocities to great to tell
Of things that happened
To their precious baby girls
Someone needs to invent
A new definition
For virginity
