This weight on my shoulders may be too much.
For this pain there is no crutch.
If only someone had a key
they could see into and let these secrets free,
but no key has fit in this lock.
The day one does will be a complete shock.
Until then I sit here feeling down and out.
These secrets I hate, make me want to shout.
