The Only Secret

 The only secret I ever kept

Was sealed off from others

Without an attempt from them to wonder,

Speculate or guess

Why my life to them didn't make much sense.


The only secret I ever kept

Was the brilliant and clever

Way I was exempt

From the fate or the fracture that others have told

As long as the stories reoccur from the old.


I succeeded for a long time riding the crest

Of a wave between freedom and surely contempt

From others who walk a more well traveled road

They wouldn't believe me even if I had told.


-Kelly Write Away
