2012-2013 Kept to keep you safe at night
To keep you bed warm
To keep the world right
Secrets make us go
From the summers sun
To the winters snow
They fester in everyone
pulling in the guilt
It's job never done
The words seldom spoke
admitted privately
or confessed in joke
Secrets can take and give
feeding on happiness
they spread to live
Even what you need
honesty you deserve
they find a way to lead
back to fears long dismissed
back to unsteady moments
to chances risked
Secrets live on and on
replaying in your mind
once all hope is gone
They are the thought
You desire to hear
Once the consequences wrought
The one thing that hurts you
and you'll do anything
for even a clue
