The whispers are carried through the trees,
Into the vast unknown.
Hidden behind the closed door,
The Secrets are never shown.
.
'Step up, step up, put key to lock,
And take a look around.'
The Secrets have been hiden from you,
Never making a sound.
.
'Trust your heart,' whisper they,
They know your heart's desire.
'For good fortune comes to those who wait,
Be patient future sire.'
.
The prince stepped back, alarmed,
The Secrets knew his name.
He ran back up to the castle,
His mind was never the same.
.
Years passed in a hurry,
The Secrets' voice in his mind.
If he followed their instructions,
Is the crown what he would find?
.
Day by day and year by year.
He waited long and hard.
Soon a crown was placed on his head,
A beauty among the scarred.
