Regurgitate Those Secrets

It’s time to put them all to bed

Secrets, they can be an absolute joy

Or they can cause immeasurable pain,

But there’s no doubt in my mind

Secrets, they’ll not eternally remain.

***

Secrets have a habit of coming out

At the absolute worst possible time,

So with all that in mind, maybe

You should choose to lay it on the line.

***

We’ve all got at least one of those secrets

If not, then I wonder have you really lived,

I’m sure we’ve all got a skeleton in the closet

Let it out, it’s time for you to forgive.

***

Holding on to our deepest secrets

Could be harming us in the long run,

I know I’ve quite a few buried deeply

Air them on out and let them be done.

***

For once, for all and forever

Let’s dust off those secrets we buried,

Let’s put them to bed for all times

So we can have fun, dance and be merry.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.
