I want to rip you out of my heart like I rip the best pages out of poetry books
Crumple you up and carry you
around in my pocket
Rubbing your edges between my finger tips while I walk
Just for comfort

I want to read you over and over
again
Until I know every word
Every comma
Everything by heart

When I get home I'll flatten you out
Frame you
Put you on my wall
And hope to forget that you're there
Although I know you always will be
