Too much

Sometimes, like when i have this knife
and this small green apple
i wish it wasn't my job to break the skin

because halven means broken

Suddenly, as when I open this door
and she stops playing Ravel
i rebel to the task of interruption

because halven means broken

Yet when i stand here with the pages blowing
and the roses wilting
i weep...and hear his voice

halven means broken
broken means healing
healing means heaven

So today i will lay the dirt in heaps
but the words are there
and halven means jesus.
