i was the ivory goddess in your arms
glowing from the moonlight
one touch and i was on fire
consumed
and ever consuming
created
and ever creating
months before
i was the goddess in another's arms
bronzed from the sun
he and i danced with water and waited with the rocks
we worshiped and were worshiped
loved and were loved
goddess, though i am
i am made by these fickle friends in the sky
the sun and moon are my sustenance
and i am subject to a man's love
strengthened by his touch
empowered by his words
no more.
