Los Angeles, CA

There once was a boy
who was made, not created
He wanted to learn
He wanted to indulge his senses,
to understand pain
But most of all,
He wanted to love
For only when he found true love
would he become real

He traveled far and long
But love eluded him
The humans that surrounded him
complicated the word,
strove to drive it out of the world altogether,
and this he could not understand
For what could be more simple
than to love
and be loved in return?

He was made
with an 8-Bit Heart...

And so the boy traveled on,
undeterred, upon his quest
For he now knew
that it was not another's love that would make him real
But the love within his own heart
And with that
He knew that he would never be
alone.
