A Secret Past

When I came into this world life was perfect I didn't have to think about every day Now life has moved in a different direction I've tried so hard to get your affection The rain helps me hide my tears They've gathered over the years You don’t know what I’ve had to endure It’s a miracle they found a cure I regret holding it in for the past years I didn’t want you to share my fear I tried to live my childhood as normal as could be Don’t be mad for me trying to be me I tried to tell just someone But you can’t tell one and call it done Everyone tries to hide his or her past At last, mine is no longer a secret I hope you’re not upset It was just something I tried to forget My secret haunts me in my sleep Our friendship is something I want to keep I hope you don’t hold this against me Now we’re closer than we’ll ever be
