My Secret

The biggest eyes tell the deepest stories
The smallest mouths keep the biggest secrets
I have a secret to tell.
I was told not to say anything
Especially since no one would believe me..
Why? Because I'm just a kid.
It happens daily and each time
I'm told to stop that crying and wipe my eyes
In due time I'll learn to love as much as you do
But it hurts so much..
I have to keep silent..
When its all over a kiss on the cheek
And you saying you'll see me next me when you come for a visit
A reminder, to keep our secret
Another week goes by
I'm still in pain..
I don't want anyone touching me
No hugs
No playing
Just to be left alone
When I'm other places, I just want to go home
Sit in a corner and think of what I did
Only reason this could be happening is because
I'm a bad kid...
This is my punishment..
I guess I deserve it.
Although I have no clue what I did..but it must have been something
It's that time again..
The visit..
I wish I could refuse it..
But I can't
Another day of innocence stripped away..
I know this isn't right
And I want to tell the world..
But it's said to be a secret no one would believe it..
Not coming from a lil girl
So I keep it to myself
Put it on the shelf
And withdraw from the crowd a little more..
Until then just read the signs..
Look into my eyes
I have a secret to tell...

Can I tell you?
