Secrets

I know where beauty's secrets lie.
We dance to whispers in her bed.
Dismiss, resist the fears that I
might be misled.

I know where beauty's secrets fly
with fairy wings around my head.
And in the sky, we wave goodbyes
like newlyweds.

I know why beauty's secrets cry.
She seals them up when she instead
should loose the thread that keeps them tied
to senseless dread.

And to her secrets I reply,
my heart has burst from what you've said.
The pieces rise like butterflies
that I have bled.
