In my mind
It doesn’t make sense how two people can
fall so deeply for each other in such a short amount of time
But in my heart
It makes so much sense that I could
cash those cents in for dollar bills and take you anywhere you’d like
And if you asked me where I wanted to go
I’d say in your arms
Because that’s where everything feels right
Time stops
And it doesn’t matter to me that four quarters equal a dollar because the only cents I need is the sense of your breath on my neck while we’re making love
And I’d choose making love with you over making money any day
Easily
Because there’s a difference between making a living
and living.
And I choose to live in your arms for as long as you’ll let me.
Because you don’t find a connection like this very often.
It’s rare,
even dangerous.
