Behind Closed Doors
We wear our many masks for the world to see
Alone is when we can truly be …..
Behind our closed doors
Our secrets are safe
Hidden and buried
To take to the grave
Skeletons in the closet
Ghosts of yesteryear
Stowed away, protected
All guarded right here
Leaving from ‘behind closed doors’
Our masks on time after time
Assured in knowing our secrets
Are securely left behind .….
