So He Said
He said he wanted an Addict:
A woman addicted to knowledge.
He said he wanted a Pusher:
Someone to push him past his limits.
He said he wanted an Accomplice:
Someone who wouldn’t turn on him when times get tough.
He said he needed Security:
A woman who could secure his heart and protect it.
He said he wanted to a Drug:
The kind of love that gets him high.
To elevate higher than all boundaries, so they could ascend together.
It sounded so simple.
But when I said,
“You Ready?”
He hesitated.
