SECRETS

Why can't you tell me?

Don't you trust me?

I won't tell anyone?

Why does it matter?

Why is it such a big deal?

But all these question are never answered

You just ignore them

Or you walk off

Or you deny it and keep it hidden inside

Secrets can be dark

Or the brightest memories/things

They can tear freindships apart

Or build them stronger with trust

Secrets can make relatonships strong

Or tear them apart form worrying/trust

Secrets can help you get by in everyday life

Or be dragging you down into some dark abyss

You can keep the secret for yourself

A private moment that you cherish by yourself

Or they can be the exact opposite

It could be something youu're scared of

And it torments you more and more

With each day that passes

Secrets can kill a person

Drive them completely out of their minds

They may need to tell someone byt they can't because of a promise

Or  because they couldn't bring themselves to admit it

It can be a devastating thing

So stop hiding things from me

A bad secret can make you crazy. Sometime secrets must be kept. People make many mistakes. Good for them to be lessons and move on to better things. I like the feel and the desire of this poem.
"With each day that passes
Secrets can kill a person"
