Closer

You can take my love
you can have my heart
and you can keep both

 close by

I will cherish your heart and keep

 It close

to me.

To us.

But if you take me and put me in your pocket

Don't forget
Me.
My being....my everything.

don't put my love on a board game
Don't roll the dice and place your bets
If you must bet on anything.

I bet you everything

That my love...
Isn't a game.
