He was curious. He was dangerous.
And sure enough he loved her.
She begged for him, yet he resisted.
Because he felt she was too much.
Too much for him.
She was addicting.
She was afraid.
Yet the two,
could withstand the rain.
So call them strange, and you will see
what the two lovers can hold.
Because the world is theirs.
All theirs... for no one else to see.
