a thousand secrets known to me. <br />so few mine own to prove. <br />but keep them hidden <br />in my heart; <br />mountains, <br />mine to move... <br />for no one's eyes <br />and no one's praise <br />this prescience comes to me. <br />so very rarely i disclose <br />what in my mind <br />i see. <br />but like a dream, <br />tormented by <br />or visions in the night; <br />they come unbidden <br />unto me, <br />my wakefulness, despite. <br />revealing to me things to come; <br />which knowledge, i despise. <br />tomorrow, never <br />thing unknown... <br />'twere better a surprise.<br /><br />moon batchelder<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-thousand-secrets-known/
