The Intimacy of Giving You Pain

Don't expect anyone to understand
Except you
Entered into an unwritten contract
A need so gargantuan
Unachievable by self
No
You need me
I offer without reservation
An intimacy unmistakably treasured
Because they don't understand
We share this secret
Smile to ourselves
Marks and markers
Exquisite
