The Secret in the Lake
.
we all have deep dark secrets here
some are kept in the lake so near
not much more that we can fear
your life can be at stake my dear
.
weighted down a burdened heart
he dropped me there from the start
descending with a love that’s lost
when a lucid stare will have a cost
.
cold fetid water surrounded me
it flowed about like wind in a tree
it has been so long I could not cry
I could not shout nor could I lie
.
downward drifting like a leaf
liquid terror beyond belief
my gown is clinging close to me
gives bliss to the wearer of the key
.
passion of lungs are burning
try to scream ever yearning
one last breath before the kiss
and then a dream of loving bliss
.
the lake has secrets and the key
passion gripping it now has me
I can see the bed of the lake
has set me free for love to take
.
