Secrets are disappointing
Exciting
Suspenseful
They hold a powerful truth

Whether they are about you
A friend
A crush
They all have a different effect

Secrets tell love
Hate
Annoyance
They have to start somewhere

Keep your secrets
Defend them
Hold them tight
Keep them secret

Because they can disappoint
Excite
Create suspense

If a secret is really a secret
To be kept
Safe and sound
You’ll keep it

The author's comments:
This one is mainly about what I think about secrets. I've been taught to keep them, and onlly share them if instructed to, but not everyone only knows to do that, so... here it is, for the people who have no common sense when it comes to being loyal.
