A stone
Within a field
I find
Carved in love
Broken by time
Love
Here once bloomed
As I held you
Within my arms
But
My back I must turn
Leaving my past
Leaving my heart
Upon this hill
A stone
Upon this knoll
I unearth
Breathing life
Into the words
Here written
Finding only a ring
Where once
I had burried
My heart
My life
Finding only pain
Fore only the heart
I gave her
Lies broken
And Dead
And but fore
The memories
Of us
My life
I am sure
Would end
A stone away from time
I find
Where upon
I lay another
Discarding life
For memories
Discarding life
For the ghost
That was you and me
Enscribing these words
Imortal through time
2 Lovers
Captive in time
Depart
Me with your class ring
And you
Forever with my heart
