He couldn’t help but look,
She was so elegant —
He couldn’t help but try
To talk to her
He couldn’t help but fall in love,
It seemed so right;
The next few weeks and months
Were all a blur —
But she was more than just a look,
She’d known of hurt:
The monsters that she feared,
She’d seen herself —
And so she reached out to him,
Just to find that when
It wasn’t about him,
He couldn’t
Help
