Secrets

December 28, 2020

Secrets, Lies, Wispers

Who, When, Where, Why, How

Can I tell you a secret?

Promise to keep it?

Spill my heart into your ears

My dreams, My life, My fears

I trust you not to tell

And make my life a living hell

Why do we tell anyone at all?

A crack in our strongest wall

Just one person, just a crawl 

But one becomes two, then three, walk until we fall
