There is a landmine in my
backyard, and I keep it there for
comfort.
In my pocket, a grenade
that you set off. Luckily,
I don’t keep myself here
anymore.
But you see, my heart is in
your pocket, for I thought keeping
it with you would keep it safe.
But you dove into acid and my
heart now burns with you.
I can feel the sting from here,
and the hole in my body where I
removed the organ that kept me
alive. But, if the acid is where you
reside, then my heart will reside with you.
