Their morbid curiosity gratified;
But in our heart, a wound
The African sun never can heal!

Seriously ..if not mistaken , is this about a woman feeling she has been robbed of her "virtue" Maybe we need to celebrate Vagina day for this maiden no more

For many abound,
With wounded virtues and broken hearts.
All left to fester, in the unyielding African heat.
