Just between you and me

there is a secret place

to which I can escape

and be who I am truly.

No matter what I say

or how hard you may seek,

this place will remain a secret

since only I know the way.

The walls that surround

are impenetrable for sure

and no tools and no words

will bring them to the ground.

But if ever you hold a space

within my heart I could arrange

a trip around the walls

and a glimpse at my secret place.
