There have been some things
that haven't been said.
Due to feigned interest,
or lack of time,
they haven't been disclosed.
Youthful events, unsaid.
Of romances... unspoken.
Haunted childhoods.
Dreams and wishes,
unvoiced.
Facts too hard to bear...
kept quiet.
The silence will persist
until questions are asked
and answered.
Where is the curiosity about a life story?
Where the desire to know more -
to know everything.
Things that happened
shape the being that you behold.
There are some things
that you should know.
