Inside this heart of stone,
Lay a little metal.
Engraved our names,
On the fourth of July.
Down in the ocean of my mind,
A keepsake,
Of you, of us.
I'll keep it safe.
But I need to put it down to rest.
Just for a sparing moment of hope and relief.
To die within the crystal is not of my concern.
A little different aspects,
Put me down to learn.
Now keep my secrets,
I'll keep yours.
I have to put you down to rest,
so I can learn to live with it.
A keepsake,
