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.
