Mysteries That Lead To You

what are the things
that keep you up at night
restrict and paralyze
you with fright
what are those dreams
I see on the shelf
that you anguish about
and keep to yourself
tell me something special
you’d like to do
something no one else
has ever done with you
these are the things
I want to know
for they are the things
that go far below
hidden in private
known by a few
they are the mysteries
that lead to you

Precious thoughts in sensuous tones, a true lover's song.

I liked the way this flowed to the ending, Helen, nicely done.
