Hidden Secrets

by Mark Paxson

Hidden secrets, a closed door

Tentative steps, cross the floor

Reaching slowly, lift the latch

Opening wide, breath does catch

Dust

by Memoirs of a Dragon

gaze not past infinity

dare your own heart ..... to just be

dare your lone heart ..... to be just

tears and regrets become ..... dust
