lackluster dreamings

secrets

secrets, secrets are no fun

unless they're kept from everyone.

i looked at your face and knew what you would be dangerous.

the kind of dangerous that could ruin me.

the kind of dangerous that could ruin my relationship.

the kind of dangerous that could ruin my life.

i felt a spark when you looked at me,

a secret smile glanced my way.

i pushed it down, thought of you in secret,

only when there was no one else around.

he hurt me, he tried to break me,

knife after knife of hurtful words into my heart.

brick walls built up so high

i could never break them down.

i clawed and scratched, bloodying my hands, 

but got nowhere.

you helped me see the light,

you brought me back from the edge,

and we told each other how we felt.

in secret.

we kept our secret for months,

secret kisses, secret smiles.

no one knew but us.

secrets, secrets are no fun

unless they're kept from everyone.
