Because I need more time
Love isn’t an ice cream you lick
It doesn’t melt in the sun
It burns in here
Look.
Because I’m not ready yet
My feet have cracked and my soul is weak
Love isn’t a bottomless well of forever
It sizzles like antacid powder
And then flat
Because I fear
Love weighs a ton
It needs a stronger man
And these shoulders break easy
See?
