My words

They don't mean much

To you at present

 

Until they mean

Too much

Until they mean

Everything

 

My words hold secrets

They hold the words

I don't plan to tell you

 

Just as my lips

Are lock and key

 

My mind is a gilded cage

With a secret to keep

One that's all my own

 

A secret I hope,

You'll never truly know

This piece was written about how I sometimes find it hard to accurately explain and express all of my secrets. Whether it is to my parents or friends.
