1. Who am I to be responsible for love?
2. Into each heart I peer down a dark well
3. From above, powerful rays of light strike the pool below
4. Amidst the chill of its subterranean stone, the light dances on the surface of waves
5. Standing in its presence, I am guided and can see clearly the tiled stone leading down
6. But the light seeps into the skin of my neck and eventually burn its pigments
7. I am obligated to love when I cannot love myself
8. And yet I love myself more than others
9. Cynically, I accuse others of feeling the same
10. I am pulled to love regardless
11. I don’t see another way
