Nestled in Your Heart

Image by Rachel B. Baxter

Nestled in your heart,
keep me like a jewel
in a tiny treasure box —
hide me away,
but forget me not,
keep me like a secret
you’d never dare tell.

Let every lovely song
remind you of me,
listen to them on low
and hold me close
when no one can see —
as days go by, still a sparkling
gem I’ll be —
and, in your heart,
I’m more than just a memory.

about me.
