A Secret To Keep

Tell me a secret No one else knows I promise I won't tell Your secret is safe with me I'll tell you mine If you promise not to tell Mine is kind of a big one It might blow your mind Something you would never expect From little ole me The one that hides behind the mask The scared, unsure young woman Who put her trust and love Into the person that was suppose to be The one and only The one i should have been able to Trust with my life But now I don't trust him with a thing He ruined me Some might say beyond repair I'm "damaged goods" I am, I admit, not right Rape changes a person In ways no one can imagine Makes you wish you were someone else Someone new Nothing is the same No matter how you try To act like it is It scars you for life Especially if it was more than one time But you try to find your way back Though impossible it seems at the time And you might hurt people you love on the way Because your not the same Everything has changed That's my secret Promise not to tell? I hope you keep your promises well!
