My Secret

This secret is a black cloud in my head
Unsure of what it will lead to
Unsure of what to do about it
Should I tell someone?

Is my mind playing tricks on me
This can't be as it seems
My lonliness is fooling me
The more I think, the worse it gets

So alone, with nobody to tell but myself
There is nothing to do but sit in silence
These frightening thoughts in my mind
Eating at my mind until that's all I think 
about
What do I do with my secret?

Hello. Secrets are a terrible burden. Maybe you should write them down? Haha. Well written. Take care.
