Keeping Secrets

Shhhh!
Don’t tell anyone,
Keep it quiet,
They mustn’t know.

What would they think?
If they knew the truth,
No, it must be kept a secret.

The judging looks,
Feigned approval,
Hiding all of their disapproval.

How could you do this to them?
No one expected it,
So you can’t say anything.

Who knows what they’d do,
If they ever knew,
With their old fashioned view.

It might not even be serious,
You could change soon,
Decide you were wrong.

You have to hide it,
Don’t tell them,
Not yet.

Definitely not yet.
