Do you harbor a secret true
like everyone else and me too?
All of us have something to hide
Affairs we would rather set aside.

An illicit fling or an ****** scene
Oh, of nature grave and keen,
A wild fantasy or wistful whims
Or, maybe, one of the 7 deadly sins?

Like the wilted rose in a book
Or the rickety skeleton in a nook,
We hide our frailties in the far recess
of our mind for no one to access.

We all succumb to carnal sentiments
Unmindful of the 10 commandments;
If anyone can prove me otherwise
that truth I speak not but plain lies;

Forever to hold my peace I swear,
Not to write, speak or ever share
my thoughts or opinion in this case
until the last day of the sunshine I face!
