You promise “processing tonight” You print my name in off-white A thermal label curls slight You pack a kiss in brown light Corrugation dust lifts My porch light blinks—I refresh Your smile says “soon,” I second-guess Scan the code On-the-road Set the mode Drop the load Six to seven days Say okay, stay You send a tracking number It naps all day like thunder “Label made”—no wonder— my hope slides under the packing slip Status reads “arriving late” we joke, but I still wait Out for love Photo proof Doormat cropped Shoes off-frame Six to seven days Say okay, stay Day six turns seven: I hammer refresh Laser combs the code barcode stalls “Try again,” the gun coughs Doorbell—one clean ring, sky haze You at my threshold—no delays okay, stay
Lyrics
You promise “processing tonight” You print my name in off-white You pack a kiss in brown light Then tape the box not too tight My porch light blinks, I refresh Your smile says “soon,” I second-guess Scan the code On-the-road Say the mode Drop the load Six to seven days Say okay, stay You send a tracking number It naps all day like thunder “Label made,” no wonder My hope goes under-under Status reads “arriving late” We joke but I still wait Out for love Proof above Push to shove Call it love Six to seven days Say okay, stay Weather hold Hearts on hold Signature Make it sure Six to seven days Say okay, stay Doorbell rings, sky haze You arrive, no delays
