After two months of kissing his sexual appetite had reached its peak,

a home run was now what he wanted, the other bases just didn't compete.

But I wasn't quite sure I was ready, although I had been curious for a while,

because all of my friends were doing it, but to be honest I was still just a child.

But not for long because I was just two months away from turning eighteen,

& most of the girls I knew had lost theirs between the ages of fourteen & sixteen.

& even though I didn't love him, I did happen to like him a lot,

I'd known him forever & he was surely fine enough to get the key to my box.

So I made up my mind that it was now time to give him what he had been asking for,

& my innocence was traded for five minutes of awkwardness soon after I entered his door.

Five minutes of pain, accompanied by five minutes of regret,

all of this was going through my mind & he hadn't even pulled out of me yet.

It had nothing to do with him, but everything to do with me,

I traded in my chastity for a false sense of relationship security.

Because I knew if I didn't, that another girl would be willing to,

& after all, isn't this what all girlfriends and boyfriends do?

So why did I feel these negative feelings like something had happened to me?

I walked out that room differently, & he stayed right where he was,

holding on to my virginity.
