I love you , I said
in harsh whisper
that echoed
Till you heard it back
But it was merely a repeat
and so all meaning was lost

Oh reality how cruel you are
to allow us to dream

I had tied my own  future to yours
As if that made it true
And then you told me
And I knew

You were willing to give
a heart
But any heart of yours would be mechanical

A makeshift heart you ordered for emergencies
As yours was given
Long before I
