Behind those bright moonlit eyes,
Is where a Dark Secret lies,
Lips do not speak what only words can tell,
The heart aches because all is not well.

Everyone watches and she seems fine,
They don't realize she is treading a very thin line
Between reality and make believe,
Oh, but what a tagled web she weaves.

When they ask she only tells lies,
Because every night she Secretly cries,
As the tears flow a peice of her soul Secretly dies,
All she longed for was for a Secret dimise.

Then came the day she met him,
And all at once she had a purpose again,
But still her Secret lied deep inside,
Eating her away until she could no longer hide.

She felt so empty that she would constantly weep,
Tossing and turning she could no longer sleep.
He would hold her, comfort her, and ask her what's wrong,
And for her he was there and he was strong.

As their love grew immensely her secret grew small,
And one day she finally told him all.
Now she could finally move on,
She was the ugly duckling turned into the swan.

Secrets will come, try to face them without fear,
You can always cope when a beloved one is near,
Even when the secret is painful,
You should never feel shameful.

Now when she thinks of it and begins to cry,
She just remembers where the other half of her soul lies,
In the heart of the one she desires,
he will keep her safe, like keeping water from the fire.
