if hearts

could be

hidden away

i would hide mine

right beside your own

in the pocket of your shirt

if hearts

could be

hidden away

i would hide mine

somewhere where you

could find it, when i am long gone

if hearts

could be

hidden away

i would hide mine

deep inside a tree, where

we used to sit, when it was us

if hearts could be hidden away

i would hide mine

with the child that was ours

but now it is only yours, for i have

been dust for so long, i know nothing but it

and the box i live in, all alone and cold
