Secrets
April 13, 2016
Have you ever had a dream
Or a wish or a thought or anything at all
That you decided to keep to yourself
To stop conflicts or trouble
Or quarrels or barrels of problems
But once you chose not to say anything
You realized you had thought wrongly
And then you had to fix things up
And put the puzzle pieces back together with glue
And something not your fault became your duty to clean up?

Secrets can be dangerous, and they can cut through hearts like knives. They can leave scars like punches. But they aren't always your fault.
