I've given you my heart
I've literally carved it out and handed it to you, said, "It's yours" and sat back down.
You held the beating, quivering, steaming thing in your hands for a few minutes, like "Hmm, what should I do now?"
If I ever stop giving you reasons to keep holding onto it, mail me
West
And mail yourself
East
Because WE could never get lost
If I ever stop loving you, knit me a sweater for my future because that will be when hell has frozen over
If I ever look at you while you're sleepy in the morning and I split-second compare god's heaven to the way your eyes pinch up, shoot me
If I can't love you good enough, leave me
Say you're sorry but you have to return me because
I couldn't fit
The shipping and handling will be very expensive though,
Because if right now is forever, then we're already here
