more sexual as an intellectual than as a woman more sexual as intellect than as womb
sexualestsexualust exhaust true bibliomancy a woman opened at random word
e-mailed her saying I was about to love my virginity said I was about 50% here 50% there in lose
here are my feeling I’m laughing I’m breaking!
I ing for you ew laughing and breaking
respond with understanding  breaking and laughing
really do but you sound not having sex always
like a "th" you don’t comes
understand you sound  down to not getting over
like a mother a there the       awkwardness
apist a comforth of lists
you respond give to-do limbs
ing ing ing ing ing                                                                                                                
me a breaketh
