Marked

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
