Treasure

I wrote this when I was a virgin.

Across the sea, over the mountains, along the endless road did I travel.

Searching high and low, under every mask and peering down from the sky, 

I asked every passerby, 

"Have you seen a pure lover?  There must be one, there has to be!

One that is only for me.

He is the one who in love I surely will fall."

But none had seen him.

Not one at all.

Some were shocked when I asked about my destined lover.

Some looked at me doubtful and shook their heads doing their part.

Others laughed at me calling me foolish, "for you can never find a man with a clean mind and heart."

Although I will keep pressing forward,

determined to find the one only for me.

I will not listen to their lies.  

I know that he is out there, and I will not rest until I look into his loving eyes.

I must be with him despite the costs.

I will die without him near.

How I long to be at his side.

When will I be called his bride?

But until that glorious day when I will wear a gown of lace,

his love only will I forever chase.

[Another Relic]

I believe this can be looked at from a man's point of view towards women as well. These days it is not always easy to find a pretty girl that has not given of herself early in life.
