Secrets I Had Kept

Secrets I had Kept

When I woke up on Wednesday
a fire was in my veins.
Before I slept on Thursday
I had it by the reins.

Friday frightened me again,
and in my fear I slept,
for Saturday was facing me
with secrets I had kept.

I hid from you till Sunday.
You met me face to face,
and now I grieve on Monday
without a shred of grace.

If I should die on Tuesday
and you are at my door,
just know there isn’t any way
I could have loved you more.
