tall, prickly, and dangerous
I see your back in town
last time here you left me
but I've made a country crown
these wildflowers are deadly
don't mess with me this time
ill rattle out in warning
don't dare you cross that line
I'm the sheriff in town now
and you've yeed you're last haw
this ain't the rodeo lass
you'll surrender to the law
I know you, oh Saguaro
how you look above the rest
but when you die its only bone
a skeleton at best

how to |

how to make the soul stop from feeling
how to keep your heart from breaking
how to stop your mind from thinking
how to heal a wound on the wrist
how to start breathing again
how to keep on living
how to cliff jump

I'm not a toy

you don't give me away
when you outgrow me

you don't toss me away
when my battery is low

you don't put me on a shelf
like the rest of your collection

I am not a toy,
Yet you are a child

let me go
and
slap a label on me
that reads
FRAGILE

Is this love?
...or are we playing cards with a deck of hearts
