“...when you're hard and unyielding your words score me with lines - I hate lines - I want curves - curves are happy like a snowman ...”

“...you know I wanted a Madonna, not a whore - I made you sacred offering you my words...”

“...there's something magical about a mask, but I have never worn one - I want you to see my pain and know how your love affects me...”
