In whispers shared 'neath the moon's soft glow,

Where shadows dance and cool winds blow,

Lies a secret in the heart's deep chest,

A silent word, unspoken, at rest.

Can you keep a secret, hold it tight?

Keep it safe through the restless night?

For secrets are like precious stones,

Buried deep in earth's old bones.

They weigh heavy on the bearer's soul,

A quiet force that takes its toll.

Yet in your hands, they may find peace,

A gentle release, a sweet release.

So can you keep a secret, my dear friend?

Guard it close, until the very end?

For in this moment, we find our trust.

A whispered truth, a promised hush.

And if you can, then so shall I,

Keep your secrets 'til the day I die.

For in this world of noise and fray,

Our secrets keep the chaos at bay.
