Every House Has a Secret

Every house has a secret Every secrets crack like old paint brushes Years of hidden secrets can jeopardize our future No matter how well kept Unlike the true identity of Mona Lisa Some secret are best kept untold Within each house a heart is broken Each room is a constant daily reminder However, once it’s broken it’s impossible to fix Secret and lies cause a sense of nagging conscience We all need a chair in Washington To turn around and vouch for us However, not this time, not this time We the people have to make it happen

Yes it is true. . . . I will not be a "fly on the wall" It's probably both happy and bad things that happen behind closed doors. Very well written Annie. - oxox love Anne-Lise :)
