Interrogation Poem by Sarah Cotnam

Secrets may fade in my mind
but they will never disappear
The only secrets I'm afraid I'll break
are the ones I hold so dear
I am not one to open up
but it isn't because of fear
I don't need you to know everything
I don't need to shed another tear

Secrets are made in my mind
the silence I hold so tight
Don't make me tell you all my thoughts
I don't want to have to fight
Don't change me to your cookie cutter mould
my eyes can't take your light
I don't have to fit into this world
I don't have to explain; it's my right
