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
