in the dark little corner of your heart
lives something precious
warm and thriving
not dead at all
in the dark depths of your mind
it touches dreams forbidden
weeping in joy
quietly breathing
in the darkest hour of the night
there is a stirring
fears slip away
and hope peeks out.
You've got to hide your love away...
