Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
Two souls destined to meet
Amid the concrete city
When her royal blue maze
Fell upon his ardent gaze
A glint of life lit up the haze
Unfurling her complexity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
A smile, a keepsake offered
Although their mindsets differed
His hand politely hovered
She welcomed the perplexity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
He held her up and wiped her tears
One by one he chased her fears
He poured holy water in her ears
Swept the shards of toxicity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
Day by day, he cleansed her life
He never whined about the strife
And when he asked her to be his wife
She cursed her inner scarcity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
She was afraid to lose control
Around her heart she built a wall
She didn't think she had a soul
Deserving of felicity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
He sat her down and held his ground
Said all the life he'd lost, she'd found
He'd fight until the stars are browned
A promise of his veracity
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
She asked him why he'd been so kind
She'd never seen it from mankind
He answered “how can you be so blind?
I love you! in all simplicity….”
Her sin is her lifelessness
His own is his intensity
Two souls destined to meet
For love is a core necessity
