Secrets

Secrets locked,
Within a chest,
Within a cage,

A cage of steel,

Secrets locked,
Within a heart,
Within a stream,

A stream of blood,

Secrets hidden,
By a shield,
By a wall,

A wall of lies,

Secrets hidden,
In a shadow,
In a plague,

A plague of night,

Secrets spread,
By a phantom,
By a friend,

A friend in wrong,

Secrets spread,
By a whisper,
By a bird,

A bird of prey,

Secrets lost,
Create a freedom,
Create a place,

A place to belong,

Secrets lost,
Create a mind,
Create a truth,

A truth to avow
