Gates of Hell
March 22, 2016
I’ll tell you a secret if you promise to keep it between us.
I’ll tell you my worries if you promise to save your pity.
I’ll tell you my fears but don’t dare use them against me, for I will already know yours.
I’ll open up to you
I’ll let you into my life.
I’ll tell you the cause of my heartaches.
I’ll tell you about my thoughts when I’m alone at night.
I’ll open the gates of my hell.
Don’t be scared to tell me to stop.
Don’t be scared to tell me your innocent mind has had enough.
Or maybe I’ll spare your life by keeping my secrets.
