Secrets

With a heart of gold
and eyes that searched deep beyond the surface
she touched your mind without making a sound
and she spoke words that would melt in your hands
and sang melodies that would dance in your soul
and you wished you could somehow return the magic
but as fast as she came, she always went
back to the place only she knew
the place you would never guess
so it hit you heavily
more than you anticipated
when she never came back
and only then did you recall the times that
her smile didn’t quite reach her eyes.
