A secret
scared of forever and scared of seconds.
Locked in her lips;
it's always
flighting about.
Threatening,
every now and then
to creepy-crawl out.

It need not
put up a fight,
though it is
strong in power,
it slips past
her bravest knight
in the unexpecting
hour.

It's not healthy to keep secrets inside, and if you don't confide them at the right time, they will find a way to escape. I garuntee.
