Humans were not meant to be alone
there are certain things that cannot be done alone
there is always a spot on their back that cannot be reached
and must be washed by a second pair of hands.

We are meant to have lovers
we are made as bricks are made
to lay with other bricks.

We are meant to have lovers
our backs are too far to reach
to wash on our own
our bodies are born with grooves
that can only be meant
for arms to lay upon.

We are meant to have lovers
our hearts are on our lips
and eyes are made to be looked at
not with
it is no coincidence
that the memory of embraces
leaves us empty.
