What secrets do you carry?

What follows you from dreams
to dawn... casting shadows dancing
through the day?

What secrets do you know?

Your lips curve to mystery's
touch -
Recognizing more with a smile
than a thousand words could
ever say.

What secrets do you carry?

Your eyes speak of far away.

What do they know?

Your fingers part some holy veil
yet never tell what they uncover... perhaps
just a hint left in a passing touch of
wonder.

What secrets do you carry?

Tell me... in a whisper.

And I will whisper mine.

It makes perfect sense to me
What has often been said,
That secrets can, be kept by three,
If two of the three are dead.

Liked your work....
