Transcending the Silence
Do you have a secret
that’s never been told
Deeply within you
like long buried gold
Do you keep your own counsel
for no one to hear
While staying intrepid
admonishing fear
Do you treasure those moments
in spite of the time
As words born an orphan
adopted in rhyme
That one treasured secret
alive roaming free
Transcending the silence
—of what’s yet to be
(The New Room: March, 2023)
