Not all secrets are secrets, and some are more than secrets.
I don't have secrets.
If I did, I'd tell them
'cuz I'm bad about keeping the loose secrets
I haven't fully locked away yet.
Besides, it's easier to keep them quiet
and let them eat up your insides
while wonderin' what good they'd be
to anyone else's wonderings.

Secrets sit under spells waiting
to be cast or eventually forgotten;
buried in a hole at the back of the
soul keeping silent or the one who
wants to know. And if the know is
longing enough, they'll figure it out
long enough after I've turned
         a few pages on it.
