It's More Than You Can Ever Know...

It's More Than You Can Ever Know....
It is more than you can ever know.
The passionate soul hidden within.
Scents of lavender fill that place inside.

Doors remain locked, preventing pain,
The key lies within the brain.
Someday permission to open, granted.

The mask worn is a perfect defence
Showing only what it wants seen.
Someday it will break.

Moonlight knows the darkness
Of a quiet soul trapped here.
Stars are the only place for hidden dreams.

In the world of Fae
The dancer spreads wings
No longer broken by man.

The only gift to give
Is forever kept
Within a heart of glass.

The sword used, the written word,
The blood of this warrior, ink.
The battlefield is parchment.

The song is one of loneliness
Haunting and frightful in its melody.
Each note never heard by others.

Expressions are hidden behind
Many different names
Known only to the versemaker.

Things the heart longs to say
May one day be heard by others
Surprising in their intensity.

Life being lived behind
Eyes wide open
Will someday show you the heart.
