My Patient Secrets

My patient secrets are waiting to be exposed.
They are the things about me that nobody knows.
Eventually I will have to be strong and let go.
I am just scared for everyone to know.

My patient secrets know I am ashamed.
So they agree to hide a while to delay the pain.
They can’t hide forever it will be too much.
When I try to let them out I can’t seem to lose my clutch.

My patient secrets will someday get tired of waiting.
They will lose sympathy for the pain I would being facing.
I will give in and let them go.
And hopefully I’ll be ready for everyone to know.
