I found the man I want to marry, but we dont get along. 

When he sleepwalks it has nothing to do with me.

It’s private and antiquated.

He cant talk about it and I say give me something and he offers up what he can and I decide inside that it’s just not enough.

I choose to get tough like meat.

Tenderize. Sear. 

Well-done.
