Secrets

As I age, and as I grow,

I wonder where my secrets go.

With the rain and with the snow,

With the howling wind that blows.


The secrets that I try to hide,

That I've protected with my life,

Those secrets, always by my side,

That are the cause of all the lies.


I want to forget all the things I have seen,

Even if those things created me,

These secrets are telling me to leave,

So do I go, and let them be?


These secrets are haunting,

They're tearing my soul,

These secrets are daunting,

No matter how old


I want to be able to let them all go,

I want all my friends and my family to know,

Will they accept me, will their minds blow?

Will they still love me, if they all know?
