Deep within hearts
Are yearnings never to be satisfied
Many dramas never to be acted
Hurts turned shame never to be seen
Tears buried under pride never to be dug
Words hidden in fear balloon never to burst
And so the story is never complete
As seated deep our these hidden
In a safe like a sacred temple
Never thought to be shared
Humans are that selfish
And that cowardly
