He fed me forever in teaspoons And sometimes I would tremble so much That little bits of forever would spill over and hit the ground And I felt greedy because I wanted all of that teaspoon of eternity In case it would run out. He was my traveling home We were a trailer full of broken hearts Guitar strings that were old and snapped when touched And when the winding roads wound me up so tight that I could explode with just one word He gave me two And I found a home in them that was warmer and safer than freezing house I was raised in.

He fed me forever in teaspoons And sometimes I would tremble so much That little bits of forever would spill over and hit the ground And I felt greedy because I wanted all of that teaspoon of eternity In case it would run out. He was my traveling home We were a trailer full of broken hearts Guitar strings that were old and snapped when touched And when the winding roads wound me up so tight that I could explode with just one word He gave me two And I found a home in them that was warmer and safer than freezing house I was raised in.
Based off of a character in a story I've started
