I remember the days of my youth

how I would ride on the bus

or swing high on the swings

thinking "How good it is to be alive

and to be a good girl"

knowing though some had tried

I had saved myself for my husband

who was so proud of the girl I was

the woman I became

his virgin

I've kept it safe.

So many times I've been asked.

so many times I say no.

It shall be kept safe and sound.

For only after marriage, I shall give myself to whom I

trust.
