#sworntosecrecy
Secrets, secrets, are no fun, unless you share with everyone. But what if the secret affects someone else? What if the secret negatively impacts yourself? Secrets, secrets I try to clear my mind, But it keeps popping up Time after time. Are no fun I want to yell, I want to scream, I want the whole world to know What's eating me alive And why I'm bursting at the seams. Unless you share with everyone I have been sworn to secrecy, And I cannot tell, I've sworn myself in, And with this I dwell. The past is heavy, But secrets weigh more, And with no one to tell, My heart and brain begin a War. I'm battling myself, At every given instance. And oh, how I wish I could return to my days of innocence. But I have been sworn to secrecy, And now I cannot speak of it, Such an invasion of privacy, And a secret I can't admit. But maybe, just maybe, One day I will. I'll get it off my chest And will no longer feel mentally ill. Secrecy does weird things To a person, And the longer it goes on, The more their mental health will worsen. Secrets, secrets, are no fun, unless you share with everyone.
