Can I Trust You With a Little Secret

Can I trust you with a little secret?
Would your ear promise
And your lips not betray?
Would you fix me in my past
And my present considered a facile?
Would you assume the divine power
And pronounce a second chance from afar?
Would you be human and right
And think me unworthy?
Oh, would you be so vigilant
And be quick to see the my eye specks 
While I ignore the logs in yours?
Would you judge by sight and sound
Or by the spirit that see further of the two?
