Body and a Bird

Simply because you love me
There could be no one else
Simply because you love me
You would sacrifice yourself

I wish I could say I Love You
And in a way I do
But when I say I Love You
It needs to be the whole truth

This love is not imaginary
This love is not for show
This love is more than a storybook
There is no king upon his throne

I held your hand twice
Next to a body and a bird
Both times you were crying
After all, both times I had previously been absurd

And if we’re ever rescued
Don’t you fly away too far
If we’re ever rescued
Lets leave a space, a room, in our hearts
