Secrets
It consumes me;
Day in day out.
It breaks my heart,
A little more each time.
It pulls me sideways and apart,
The human rubber band.
It makes me want to die,
Irrevocably, I will.
It kills me,
How you don't see.
It forsakes my soul,
that you will never know.

Hey, I'm seventeen, and many of those years have been spent devouring Italian mint chocolate chip ice-cream. I love Italian mint chocolate-chip ice-cream. You should really know that: that I LOVE ITALIAN MINT CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE-CREAM (okay, I think you get the picture now, huh?).
