Nov 2013
Beautiful girl,
Pieces sewn together;
A patchwork, reanimated corpse.
A makeshift heart,
Fulfilling its biological duties.
Her new brain confirmed she knew all.
You guard yourself.
You make haste.
You let them touch you,
But, never touch you.
You never give away more than you take.
She never questioned humanity,
Or the selfishness of life,
Until you.

You showed her each section was seamless;
Each idiosyncrasy part of an exquisite design.
That despite her making,
Of perfectly picked portions,
She was incomplete without you.
You were strength to her weakness,
Not loneliness.
She was humble, not callous.
She could give more than she ever could take;
And her heart did not just pump blood,
But love.
