Heartfilled Secrets - Visitor's Poem

by Melissa Miller
(Raleigh, NC, USA)

A Lonely Heart, Disappearing.
Barely Beating.
Barely Feeling.
Time takes its Toll.
The Skies Soar on top of Black Wings.
Flying.
Falling.
Dying.

As a Ship Sails the Seas,
The Wings Surface again to Glide.
Asleep and Silent.
"Keep Your Secret" says the Wind.
"Keep Your Secret Hidden and Safe"

A Nameless Light Shined through the Clouds.
Birds Sing.
Rain Falls Slowly.
So Slowly.
"Keep Your Secret" Echoes a Whisper.
Life is a Roller Coaster.
Up.
Down.
Loop-de-Loop.

A Mist Tornado Catches the Wings
Twisting.
Turning.
Where is Up?
Where is Down?
Direction does not Need to be Known.

A Forceful Power Keeps Things Right.
We can Look.
But not Touch.
Love is a Power.
Trust is so Important.
Faith is Never Assumption.
"Keep Your Secret Hidden"

A Fairytale is a dream.
A Dream is a Wish your Heart makes.
As Cinderella would say.
Wishing.
Dreaming.
Believing.
"Keep Your Secret"

Black Wings Fall.
Down Fast to the Surface.
Through Reality.
Past Everything.
Barely Touching Him.
Enough to Send a Single Message...
"Keep My Secret Safe"
