Favorite Quote:
“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”
― William W. Purkey


You can’t see them
I can’t see them
But you are mine
Mine

Mine to keep forever
Trapped in my heart

But you can’t know
And you can’t know that I’m yours
Yours

Yours to keep forever
Trapped in your heart

We will move on
I know that
Years from now your name
Won’t mean much

But it will still cause
A stirring trapped in my heart




You might wonder why
Why we keep each other
Trapped among the other memories

It is because
as they say
The one you mark is
the one you keep.

And you marked me
And I marked you
Small but indelible scratches
And marks

You can’t see them
I can’t see them


The author's comments:
This piece was inspired by a person who changed me but whom I never go the chance to know, and I line a read. I hope people will get the idea that once you change someone, or they change you, you are theirs forever and they are yours.
