The Secret

Secrets are part of us

I have a secret,
Burried deep down in a pit,
Hidden in my soul,
Is where this secret shall reside
 
This secret feasts on my intergrity,
It destroys all my sense of responsibility,
I question what is right and wrong,
I am tempted to blow the trumpet,
And push the words out of my mouth
 
But I can’t reveal this secret I know,
It mat destroy many lives,
Ruin the relationships that have
Stood the test of time
 
So the only option is to hold on to this secret,
It is now part of me,
And has a life of it’s own,
It’s deep inside a pit,
Where no light shall come.
 
I hate this secret!

(2015)
