Hides a Secret

In each of us
hides a secret
a whisper that we've always known
a fact
a certain telling
we curl around at night
Gods greatest grace is balm enough to open
up that curl
to stand
soul shining
and share with someone we love
to show who we are
without fear and then 
to see
the same in you
I see you

You are right on target here, Veronica. Secrets can keep us awake at night, but when we share them with someone we love, we feel better. Beautiful poem! Love, Carolyn
