A Sunflower Surrounded by Roses

I'll never tell

Ill never tell.
No matter how bad i want to yell,
I'll never tell.
I'll sew my lips shut before a word could slip off my tounge.
I'll never tell.
I count the reasons why I should keep these thoughts to myself.
Afraid of your judgment,
Your disappointment.
I'll keep my secrets ashore.
Ill stay up past midnight
Convincing myself that
its the right thing to do, because
I cant put that pressure on you.
So I'll never tell.
I'll keep my arms held
And my fingers crossed
That you cant read my inner thoughts.
But if you can, im sorry.
I tried to keep it locked.
I 'll keep a tight a ribbon around it so you wouldn't get shocked,
And even if you confront it.
I'll always deny,
Because I don't want to admit to myself what the truth is and what it feels like,
So I'll put on this shell.
And I'll never tell.
