Pieces...

what will happen when this%u2014
this shining, God-touched time%u2014
%u2026ends? where will we be then?
have i given you too much of me?
%u2026or is it the other way?

pieces of a broken heart
will never <sup>(quite)</sup> mend%u2014
you will always have part of mine%u2026
%u2026and i%u2019ll have part of yours.
this won%u2019t last forever%u2026

don%u2019t give me your heart%u2014
keep it for the woman
(maybe me, probably not)
God has for you.
don%u2019t let me in%u2026

if you let me hold your heart%u2014
you%u2019re making me already%u2014
i%u2019ll drop it <sup>(break it)</sup>
can%u2019t we just wait?
don%u2019t give me too much%u2026

don%u2019t let me into your heart%u2014
for from it flow the
wellsprings of life.
and i%u2019m not a wellspring.
(not a wellspring%u2026)

am i your everything or is God?

The "(quite)" and the "(drop it)" are supposed to be small. It works on dA, I'm not sure if it'll work here.
