House of Secrets: Love Lost

It was love at first sight when it appeared
The house was beautiful in it's dark color
We had a connection that lasted three years
I started calling it sexy brother

The house had many keys to open doors
But there were way too many doors for keys
This house had a lot of levels and floors
I wish I could open it all and see

I tried and tried but could never get through
These doors were sealed up tightly with bolts in
I revealed myself, you reveal yours too
or I will leave, leave this house in ruins

So goodbye I say, while walking away
from another good house of secrets that stay
