Secrets

on July 11th, 2009 by Rae

I am stuck in wanting to lay some blame

And wishing some experiences were gone

I can’t seem to escape feeling the shame

And now it’s keeping me from moving on

I’ve been surrounded by a lack of propriety

And in many ways I have been offended

Now I’m desperate to avoid the notoriety

For something I wish I could have ended

I did not wish to be taken to that place

And have been told that I am not at fault

But I’m filled with the feelings of disgrace

That always comes along with an assault

I retain the fear and don’t want to reveal

I chase away the advice that is bestowed

I diligently defend my rights to conceal

I know I choose to carry this heavy load

I seem unable to gain the understanding

Of what it will mean to no longer hide

But how long can I keep withstanding

By continuing to keep everything inside

I try and imagine what could be attained

If I could become brave enough to impart

And what it would be like to be unstained

Or to be able to change my cynical heart

Where have all these secrets gotten me

And where will my heart keep being led

By choosing to continue not to discuss

And concealing everything inside instead
