If words can reach out from a page
I would send you a million apologies
Wrapping around you the 'I'm sorry' 's like shiny ribbons enclosing gifts under Christmas trees.
If words can reach out from a page
I would send you a million curses
Every single one slapping you on the face hard
Because you deserve them.
If words can reach out from a page I would send you a million 'I love you's
I'll have them tied in a chain
For you to keep in the back pocket of your Dockers
Though I know you will give them away instead.
If words could reach out from a page
I would compose words beautifully on paper
Seal the letter with a kiss
And slide it into the mailbox.
Then I would run into my home
Shut the door behind me and wait
For your words to reach out for me
like arms and pulling me in
Though they won't
Because words couldn't reach out from a page.
But if they could
And I'd I was to be given the chance
I would
Let my words reach out for the heart.
