i see a couple walking
through the park
with matching sweaters
and I think to myself
I want to wear matching sweaters
with you And then I wake up and realize
that's improbable
because we won't last that long
because people our age never do
And I wonder now
how long will we be together?
Because you're going to college soon
and I'm stuck here
and I don't want you to sacrifice your future
just to be close to me
So what's the point
of staying together
if it isn't forever?
But then you call me up
and I hear your voice
and I hear your laugh
and I realize it may be improbable
but it isn't impossible
that one day I'll wear matching sweaters
with you
-------
If your heart were broken,
you'd be dead.
