Secret


Day by day I keep my secret safe.

No one knows and i'll keep it that way

If I tell my secret what will they say?

 

People are quick to judge,

they want to know my secrets but,

I don't nudge.

 

Staying closeted it how it must be.

I am sad I cant be me.

 

But for the first time in my life I will say,

I am proud to be gay.
