No Secret



NO SECRET

I have a little secret, not one I'm meant to keep
Compels with every night I choose, it knows not how to sleep
It opens every door with ease It shows me every way
How kindness found in each of us makes peaceful visions stay

It soothes my indecision no matter how so slight
By taking fear from reason and bringing love to light
Describes how passion's flower can bloom with fragrant smell
And how this hint of magic is never hard to tell

Revealing how a secret kept will not bring treasures fast
But how a secret shared with you will make this moment last
It matters not if loves returned or if these thoughts seem clear
For keeping mute when passion stirs is fate no man must fear

How I can get from here to there with smiles upon my face
It guides my every action now this love that I must chase
Until the arms of fate draw near.... surround with one embrace
And fashion every thought of you to share one time one space
