SECRETS

Gotta laugh
Instead of cry
Won’t make sense
To ask me why.

Never know
Doesn’t matter
In the hands
Of one mad hatter!

Up and down 
Round the bend
In and out 
Start again.

Up the cliff
Down the slide
Might as well
Just run and hide. 

There you are
Just underneath 
On the ground
You crawl, you creep.

Looking for
Some peace, some shelter
If you’re smart
You’ll never tell her.

Secrets best
Kept to yourself
Left untouched
Up on a shelf.
