?The most beautiful amongst us seem to be slightly broken, women especially. And fools We are for attempting to fix her. You?re not meant to understand her entirely. Because she is not sure who she is exactly.
- J.Raymond

Let me tell you something, before you go getting the wrong idea in your head:
I never minded your bloodstained fingertips.
All the sinning in the world wouldn?t have stopped me from loving you.
And you?ve gotta know by now that I?m no angel either;
there?s a special place in Hell for my blasphemy,
for the way I prayed to your body like I was kneeling at a church pew.
So this is my confessional:
on those nights when you came to me dripping with the slick stickiness of the dead,
I never faulted you for a second.
Instead, I wrapped the temple of your body around mine until those holy hands stopped shaking.
Here?s something I?ll take to the grave:
I wanted you something fierce.
I always had. I always will.
