I loved when I thought it was necessary
I loved when I thought it was time
I loved when I thought I was of age
I loved when I thought I was ready to

I made the decision of loving one
believing one,
trusting one,
giving all to one

I had many options, but one was enough
I gave all it takes to keep the love alive
when my body is needed, I gave in with no hesitation.
so their could be no other one

my love for one was not enforced
my love for one was not biased
my love for one was genuine
my love for one was what I wanted

so that my body would be for just one
my pain would be known to one
my secret and all to just one
and my entire life with only one

one disappointed
one's love was all lies
I was not one's only one
I was the only one present at the moment
