Whole!!

A section of me...
not sufficient!
I expect to be loved wholly!
I lie beside you 
skin to ceiling
all you think to do touch is my...elbow?!!
Wow...really intimate!!!
I am exposed 
completely
you chose to have me close
from afar
I am whole...with the imperfections that made me
a masterpiece...can't you see?
Curves and crevices that form a sculpture made of flesh 
and pure love...
why do you not love me?
