Secrets

{Post: 247/365}

is it the kind

of secret

that makes you

jump up and down

jiggle

and 

wiggle

and think to yourself

(in a happy, bubbly

sing-song sort of way)

I-know-something-you-don't-know!

OR

is it the kind

of secret

that makes your heart

ache and moan

with hurt

and 

indecision

your teeth clench

and you think

I-know-something-I-should-tell-you-but-I-can't!

OR

is it the kind

of secret

that swells your heart

with pride

and

honour

because your friend

trusted-YOU-enough-to-KEEP-it-for-them

and you WILL

is it the kind 

of secret

that is 

so good

or

so bad

that sometimes

you-wish-they-never-told-you-because-you can-barely-hold-it-in
