The Secret

Secrets whispered in the halls

Enclosed within these numerous walls

Softly crying, softly lying

Soothing now our restless thralls.

Did you hear about Wayne

How he flushed her down the drain

As she lay crying, dying

For some floozy, now his main?

No, I'd not, who'd have thought

They never once had ever fought

Such a love, ever flying

I'd not known another he sought.

Secrets whispered in the halls

Enclosed within these silent walls

As she seeks the Truth, ever trying

Fending off the creeping palls.

They can never, ever invalid tell

How he raced eager to the dell

With that other that denied

Knowing of the secret rank and fell.

They'll sigh it at night ever after

When new children cease their patter

In the ancient rocky halls

Where once rang her loving laughter.
