Secrets

Have a secret? You keep it well.

No matter what, you'll never tell.

Too ashamed of it to disclose

to anyone. Nobody knows.

 

Is it worth keeping it hidden?

It's not as if it is forbidden.

Disclosing it will save your soul

From penalty, it's in your control.

 

You want to spend your life locked up?

All you have to do to make it stop

is tell us this secret of yours,

This thing your hiding. Open your doors!

 

Wouldn't it just be easier to admit

You have a problem and to overcome it?

Just learn to do it, it's not so hard

Keep your soul from being scarred.

huronpliskin hmmm, i like how you dont reveal what kind of secret it is till the end. at first i thought it was advice, "make sure you keep your secrets" then i thought it was an interrogation "tell us what you know" and now i see its about the secrets that can destroy you...

muse4apoem I agree with "Maul" about the reptitous thing. I have to keep telling myself not to do that if the peom doesn't call for it. It's hard to describe how both those characters feelings realy. I forget the woman's name I should look it up cause I have this book. I can tell this poem is mostly about her.

MauiWowies Its really cool with a clear message, the only thing I dont like is you used "disclose" twice in the first two stanzas so it felt a bit repetitious.
