Secret

Got a secret, can you keep it? “Yes”; that’s what you say.

I put my trust in you, and go my own way.

-

I showed you, I told you, I asked you to keep my secret.

But my trust was misplaced, and you couldn’t keep it.

-

How could you; how could I have trusted you with my secret?

It was obvious from the start that you stole it for your profit.

-

I need somebody, anybody, to bring back my secret.

It involves personal worries that get worse by the minute.

-

I’m so lonely, and angry; give me back my secret!

It’ll spread like wild fire at the speed of a bullet.

-

Alas he came, to reclaim my wrongfully stolen secret.

He said “my lady don’t worry; for I will reclaim it.”

-

My savior; my heart’s cure will find my beloved secret.

And undo the wrongs that you have committed.

-

Got a secret, can you keep it? “Yes”; that’s what you say.

But I won’t tell you my secret, because you passed the limit.
