secrets are kept
as time covers our indiscretions
futures are at stake
as hopes emerge that the delicate matters
remain hidden
from the judgment of others
forevermore
we go forward, keeping covered
what we want concealed
…we all have a story to tell that’s best left unsaid

Yes. Some stories are better left that way. It’s better that they don’t see the light of the day
