i was beyond vulnerable when we met
i had only known boys with evil intention
i loved the ones who only wanted me wet
i was told only ugly girls believe in abstention

you lived your first 15 years in darkness
you allowed your heart to shiver and wrinkle
you believed you could become heartless
you believed the numbness would kindle

we were both in need of a better half
we needed love greater than the hate that
we were inclined to on our own behalf
we needed love to extend to where we were at.
