The Secret Keeper

(I finally got down to posting! And happily it is not about death! But one of these days I need to write something happy >___> Its quite hard though....)

You do remember the saying,
We said it every night before bed,
It was our solemn promise,
Our darkest secret.

We promised to keep it till the day we died,
But I doubt that will happen,
Seeing as you’re the only one left,
I seemed to have faded away.

I became a dark shadow in your light,
I was the abomination you thought to hide,
Nothing was good enough for you,
But our solemn secret.

Though, I dare you to tell,
Show everyone what you’re really like,
Because I saw the monster through the veil,
And I always will.

That doesn’t matter anymore,
Because I refuse to live this lie,
I no longer hide the secret that was once ours,
But became mine.

I saw that night,
Twelve years ago,
We were so young,
But we knew.

I kept it because I hated you,
Yes you expected love,
However, it was nothing but anger,
And nothing to your fear.

Now I hold it in my hand,
While you go on living,
But I told you long ago,
I keep my secrets and you should keep yours.
