2.A speech on my secret
When you drag your feet
Your legs feel heavier
But a secret that deep
Makes you heavier
My body is heavy
And my minds dizzy
Happiness isn’t something I can achieve anymore
And stress isn’t something I can forget anymore
The cards that I hold
Kings, queens and jacks, don’t fold
The joker card is all that wins
The grin on the card, illustrating my sins
My head starts paining
My heart rate is steadily dropping
Because the joker that acts like my devil
Reminds me that I am in peril
The weight of this secret
The misfortune, the regret
Words and expressions didn’t help
And I don’t think anything will help
Because the secrets that is eating me from the inside
Will only leave the joker to reside
