I told you that if I were to make you a sculpture, the medium I would choose is metal.
It is strong, and pliable under only extreme conditions.

I asked "What is your objective?", and you reply was aloof, yet endearing.
You said that revealing that would break one of the "The 48 Laws of Power".

What would happen if I said, "I care about you"?
Would you flee? Would that be too close to removing your shroud?

I would be a liar if I said I wasn't drawn to you.

I just worry that your steel-like exterior will cut me like a knife.


- To one of those aloof boys

Adoringly yours,
Victoria Palmer
