the safe

i've put all of my
money in the bank,
not the local
branch, but the
main one, downtown.
it's safe behind
the giant round
metal door with
a big handle,
that takes two
people to close.
it has locks
and combinations,
it's nearly
impossible to drill
through or blow
up with dynamite.
and i know what you
might be thinking,
that i do that with
my heart as well.
that my love
and affection
is tucked away in
a safety deposit box
deep within the
confines of that
vault with limited
withdrawals.
