Here is a Heart

Here is a Heart, here is a heart
I made it for you so take it
you know I live to fill you up
Blood of my blood, dripping with love
I bring you the thing you need most
Silent between supplies and machines
I hang in the corners like a ghost
you know I live to be seen through
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep
Than holding your hands inside of mine
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself
So I can crumble at your side
Sleep like the dead through the noise in your head
While monitors click and whirr and glow
I’m with you all day and also would stay
Tomorrow and onward just this close
You know I live to keep you safe
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep
Than holding your hand inside of mine
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself
So I can crumble at your side
I can’t explain it but I have to try
If you evaporate the seas will rise 'til they devour the sky
Here is a heart, here is a heart
I made it for you so take it
Battered and braised, grilled and sauteed
Just how you like it like it
No better way that I can see to spend all the time while you’re asleep
Than holding your hands inside of mine
I want to be here and nowhere else rationing off bits of myself
So I can crumble at your side
