Veiled

Feet veiled, legs veiled, pelvis veiled, torso veiled, arms veiled, neck veiled, hair veiled -
Face veiled.

And what she covered, I revealed, and what she possessed I didn't, and what she gave, I couldn't.

Our bodies were not one, but I thought his was ours.

His body is not veiled.

Mine remained always.

And what he revealed then, was covered in between, revealed now, but not to me.

My body was veiled, then, now and always will be.

Because his body can't.
