My secret hides in my closet
Underneath all my clothes
I wear it on my face
But when someone looks
I hide it
My secret feels like waking up
In the middle of the night
And not being able
To sleep again
Until everyone is awake
It makes me want to hide
And be alone
It tastes like sand in my mouth
It stops me
When I want to talk
It is like the grey colour
Of a rainy day
And it is a broken necklace
That I keep hidden
From people’s eyes
You will never know my secret
As it is buried
Deep inside of me
And it is to far down
To bring out
I hate it
When people say
‘I won’t’
And end up doing it
Even after what they said
