Intro:
"Hey, uhm hope you're good, hope you slept well....
I, I wrote you something, I wrote it yesterday and I wanted to send it yesterday but I, I thought it would make a better morning gift than a good night one
Uhm, yeah I was thinking about you a lot yesterday, and I thought that I'd write you a poem
So it goes like this..."
Verse 1:
Time started again when I saw you, taking away the death within me
Seconds burn into minutes, minutes into hours and showers of your love rained on me
You woke me, drew me from my corpse like slumber
Found all the scattered bits of me that lay under
And told me to open my eyes
And stuck my frozen fingers and coaxed my voice from my throat
Verse 2:
It is smiled in the corner of your mouth and caught my first word with it
Spilled your breath onto my tongue and said "speak with it"
Covered my frailty with patience and asked my limbs to move
Wound me into your own embrace and traced your history on my palm
You wrote my DNA and claimed me as your own
You broke away the stone casings that kept me safe from anyone
And you haven't let me go any further than where your gaze can rest
Where you can reel me in with just a look to make sure that I stay
And share a secret smile with me that only I can spy
Hidden in the corner of your mouth, I caught my first word with it
Spilled your breath onto my tongue and said "Speak with it."
