Everyone has a deep, dark secret (or ten). Write about (one of) yours in any poetic style. You can be as specific (or as vague) as you want. Please tag me.

...

The secret I have,

Is not to keep-

Lying is who I became

And spoke some truth.

You said you like me,

I fib I would stay,

You embraced my flaws,

As I silently left you-

You express the pains

I exposed the wounds,

You said you love me,

And I avoided the proof.

Yet, through the heart break

Through the hurt,

You are still there,

Heart ever so big-

And love still strong.

But as I am a coward,

And stone so pure-

I won't see you

But I want to say,

I am sorry-

And I was wrong.
