John Egbert, I will give you all the time

To say "I love you" to me so you can be mine

And I will look up in the sky

As you look down at me and shout a happy cry

But what bugs me is that you only wear blue

Can you wear some of my red too?

You don't have to, it will be fine

But I want you to wear it to make sure you're mine

So here I am writing this for you

To tell how much I care about you

To make you see how much I love you

But I may burn this away and not show you

Because by the time you read this, you couldn't even control the monster inside.
