“Secrets”

Do not ask, I cannot tell,
The secrets that I hide,
I live my life a living hell,
My passions I’ve left behind,
Desires I have always had,
Satisfactions I’ll never know,
Even those closest to my heart,
I shall never ever show,
From this life I shall part,
Never letting my feelings go,
Do not ask, I cannot tell,
Why my life took a different turn,
It may not show but I’m in hell,
And in my dreams I yearn,
To open up and tell the tale,
Of who and what I am,
But do not ask for I cannot say,
Why I live my life this way,
Not knowing what its like to be free,
Frustrated to my dying day.
Do not ask,
I cannot tell.
