To The Depths

When you said,

You had a secret,

I wish you had simply told me.

When you said,

It was best we spoke in person,

I knew, it couldn't be good.

I waited for the day,

We would meet face to face,

So I could stop the fear from growing.

That day never came,

You were gone before then,

Never again to be seen by mortal man.

Now, I wonder what it was,

The secret tucked inside your chest,

Hidden away like buried treasure.

It has been committed to the Earth,

It's depth and its meaning.

I am left to wonder.
