THE TRUTH CONCEALED

The deepest hole I’ve placed it in

And covered it with all that’s been



Then beat upon this grave each day

In hope to make it go away



I’m terrified that it will grow

And so afraid somehow they’ll know



The secret I have buried deep

The secret that I want to keep



The thing that is the root of all

The reasons why I want to fall



The reason why I’ve never been

Able to give love back again



I know that I should dig it up

And let them know my feelings but,



Instead I’ll keep it locked inside

The truth concealed within my mind
