    The Silence of the Secret Heart

    I’m seeking the answer for the secret that I hold
    Because I long since forgotten the words I was told
    I took them lightly, I let them fall
    Missed the point, and climbed that wall
    Now I’m paying my mistakes inside my head
    Keeping the words from ever being said
    To drag me down to the bottom of hell
    I’m to you, for I have fell
    The demons speak but awake they cannot be
    Yelling so loud they need me
    His eyes bring me back, to my safe place
    Just stare at his beautiful face
    Peace settles over me and I can breathe again
    I am at ease once I hold him
    This answer I’m seeking lies beneath his eyes
    So much beauty shines, I want to cry
    He makes my heart race but stop at the same time
    Every time I see him I’m glad that he’s mine
    I’m afraid of the answer to the secret that I bear
    But now I’m wondering if it’s even out there
