I could write it in the clouds surrounded by hearts
But the wind would blow it away into the vast empty sky
And I could trace it on the ground with my fingers ragged
But the rain would come and wash it away
See it dripping on the floor
And I could stab it into a tree
But the tree would wither and die like a dry plant left in the burning hot
sun
Crushing within itself
And I could write it on the wall with blood
Can't you see it pouring from my arm?
And as it falls to the ground
I think "Wasted blood."
And the wall would soon crumble to the dirty floor
And I could scream it out to the world
But you might not be listening
And while my vocal chords burst into shattered pieces
I kick myself for screaming at an inconvenient time
And I could fill up this paper with it
But the paper would get worn and dirty and stained
And fly free in the wind
Thus becoming useless
And I could whisper it in your ear
But you might forget it
So I will just say it to myself
Because I'll never forget
I could bash my head open and tear out my heart
And let them drown in the river
And I'd still know it
I could shred my eyes
And I would only regret never being able to see your radiance
I could wrap up my hands and send them to my old fourth grade teacher
And my lack of hands wouldn't cross my mind
I am my only companion
And I'll never forget that I LOVE YOU
