Keeping Secrets From Yourself

“I better not tell him

what I heard today.”

“It is almost too much,

to bear the toll.”

“The news is just plain

****** up.”

“I’m almost afraid

to whisper it to you.”

“What if he can over hear…

he’d be mad at me too.”

 

“OK no need to ****

I’ll tell you, lean in close.”

“I heard his girl-

does not love him…”

“She’s still in love

with a ghost.”
