Tale-telling Heart

Some things are meant
to be kept within the heart,
for they are secrets
best untold to those about,
for to share serves no purpose
and to tell may cause hurt.
It may seem impossible, at times,
to hold inside news alone, but know
One other knows and He alone
will listen, if you're ready
to explode.

When one realizes afterward,
the wisdom of not speaking,
one truly feels better
for having kept
the secret;
for God will
bring peace
and a knowing
in one's heart -
it was really better
they did not impart.

Prov. 11:13
