Don't Speak

Day by day I wander

I look for something that I yearn

A thing that I must ponder

I look for it at every turn

But you can't find something

When you know not what you seek

On my long journey across the land

Something started following

I fear it is after my lost treasure

Though I know not what it is

The thing may bear the name I dare not speak

And if it turns out to be

The one I fear it no doubt is

I must ask you now to leave

For it is not safe to be with me

And please for your sake as well as mine

Concerning this short tale

Don't speak of it with anyone

For you may get drawn in
