Your heart was ground zero -
The site of the first detonation.
My heart, was fully armored.
Before the strike, you were with me...
And I was with you -
But not. A Benedict.
I - destroyed you.

The site of the second detonation.
Your heart was fully armored.
I discovered love within me, for you.
Unconceivable, Uncontrollable, Undeniable.
Attack or retreat? Catch -22?
I used all my ammo.
Every last battalion.
But, sentenced to Alcatraz, I was defeated.
The first heart I broke. The first one I loved.
