My Secret
There is a secret I keep that I will never share,
one that I keep locked in my heart.
This is a secret that I alone know.
It is heart, it is soul, this secret I bear.
It is the beginning and it is the end,
it makes my life worth the time that I spend.
Without it I would be lost in a sea of turmoil and strife,
I would never be able to go on with my life.
You see this secret creates a vacuum
of sorts, it draws in life and keeps me on course.
Along with the troubles we all must endure,
I find myself smiling at my secret demure.
For with the power of my secret I will live
my life, undaunted, enriched full of love,
contentment and spice.
My secret will always make sure
I get through, the secret you see,
I call her my wife.
