false

We’re here and in the stillness now

Waiting here together now

As the quiet echoes out

In my contented heart

I can’t imagine leaving here

Hearts are eased and beating here

Softer than they were

But if

you don’t want to be

In this quiet

here with me

Please go higher

If there was a way to never leave you nor to lose

If you were a prize that I could simply see and choose

If there were a way to guarantee my heart’s fair use

I would say no 

I would say no

For there is value in a person far above another’s joy

And the taking of your heart would be to utterly destroy

All the love, all the gift, that can unite a girl and boy

If I die

I won’t take you with me

You are not my own

So if you don’t want me

Please go higher

Please go higher
