what i want to say vs. what i should say

i will glaze your heart and fire it in a kiln.
i will kiss its wound to better it.
surgically remove the nociceptors.
give you all my love to fill your empty ventricles.

vs.

i hope you can better it.
i am an on-call EMT for your heart.
please be well while i lay dormant.
i'll watch for you politely.
