Secerts
Some secrets are too much to bear
a skeleton that your closet just can't keep
if it gets revealed
it would destroy your present relationship
destroying the only place you call home
A burden so great that you're unable to look your lover in the eyes
a commitment you've made the promise to remain faithful
that promise has been broken
that act of unfaithfulness is staring you in the face
haunting your mind
The load is too great to bear upon your soul
Would it be better not to let them know?
Or would it be right to hold the secret inside?
lying to your lover secretly eating you up inside
Would you want the act of unfaithfulness to remain a secret?
