A little secret kept
so close,
a little secret kept
so deep,
now I don’t realize
you are there.
Life like the seasons
changed and went on;
we all changed and so
changed all stories,
you were dug deep, a
perfect secret
yes you the secret---
perfect calligraphy
and shining truth---
I thought you would
grow up,
grow out and spread
as the sky;
I loved you because
you spread
those small moments
of happiness,
I loved you because I
always
loved to give, and
spread happiness,
you the little secret
dug so deep under;
as days passed
as I grew up
I knew, you would never flourish
from under the mud.
Life changed and so
do everything
and so do beliefs;
you don’t breed
smiles any more
you breed greed
I am happy, you are
deep under
and you will never
grow out,
you little secret .
Now I don’t have that
passion
even when you are in
my fist.
You stay in my fist,
never grow out over
me
you little secret
lay buried .

interesting...i think there are traits we can repress if they do not correlate to who we want to become...it def takes effort though to keep that fist closed and not let them out....

ugh, that is brilliant! oh what's this secret? smiles... we can cherish something so deeply, but as we grow, our loves change...
i wonder how some secrets change so much and maybe there's a point we no longer want them or need them - and yet - we cannot let go either
ReplyDeleteThere are secrets that will be like a Janus face.. after a while the smile turns into a leer, and love into greed.. better keep those buried.
ReplyDeletethe fist held secrets packs a powerful punch.
ReplyDeletei guess secrets change with time and effort.. and effort changes secrets to truth in time as well..:)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful - specially the ending. Wonderfully done. I loved it. Thank you for joining my prompt.
