Far Too Many Secrets

It's the Gods honest truth guv'nor, I swear

Far Too Many Secrets

 

There are far too many

Secrets

There are far too many

Lies

But not yet enough water

Flowed

Beneath the bridge of

Sighs

To wash away

Dilute

Or otherwise disguise

The guilt

The pain

The anguish

Of which we both despise 

…

 

There are far too many

Secrets

There are far too many

Lies

But not yet enough

Refuse containers

To take away

Dump

Or otherwise dispose

The garbage

Waste and slurry

Which we both rigorously disown

...
