When she found him, he was a brittle bag of broken. Drawstring taut. Tight. Holding thoughts that went unspoken. Opening up isn't easy, though they say it is in theory. When putting it in practice, words slowly flow uneasy. But she found her way to his heart, started to slowly pull it's strings. Looser and looser. And now his words he sings. His spine was cracked, so she blu-tacked it back together. His mind, a map they scrawled on scraps of black leather. Bandaged his ego and plastered his past. A perfect example of a person well matched.

Heartstring.
When she found him, he was a brittle bag of broken. Drawstring taut. Tight. Holding thoughts that went unspoken. Opening up isn't easy, though they say it is in theory. When putting it in practice, words slowly flow uneasy. But she found her way to his heart, started to slowly pull it's strings. Looser and looser. And now his words he sings. His spine was cracked, so she blu-tacked it back together. His mind, a map they scrawled on scraps of black leather. Bandaged his ego and plastered his past. A perfect example of a person well matched.
