Love and lust live for so long,
I haven't seen them individually.
I haven't seen them alone.
But maybe apart they're all wrong.

Those three words stand apart now,
I haven't spoken them out loud,
I haven't heard them around much.
But maybe it's just not allowed.

Yet clasped hands tell me I'm not alone.
I haven't felt alive like this.
I haven't been loved like this.
But maybe in time I've just grown.
