One Plus One Equals One
It was something like a spark
That set there souls on fire
With each other they new there could be heat
Not to mention an animalistic desire
They were cut from different cloth
Grew up on opposite sides of the street
Time and pain passed through there lives
All ready tied to someone is how they first met
Not ten sentences in the beginning
He was having trouble trying not to stare
Withouts batting an eye she paid him no mind
Barely acknowledging he was there
Clocks and calendars kept moving
As did they
Both on the other side of their struggles
To His chance what was he to say
They text back and forth
He flirted she while sat and sighed
Then nothing
So more time went by
Then they started talking
About life's beginning, middle and end
Neither looking for love
Still they both could use a friend
Then there was butterflies
They forgot these feelings even exist
So they both threw caution in the wind
Embracing each and some of the things they missed
Both so torn apart
Maybe they could mend together
In a storm of emotions, they were lightening
Simply lace still needing leather
