Strepitous porcelain heart

Give me your heart,

and I'll make it a part of me.

Give me your blood,

which was once yours,

but was always mine,

Give me your warmth,

I'll wear it as a coat through the winter.

Give me your breath,

and I'll know your mission on earth has been fulfilled.

Give me your soul,

which never belonged to you.
