Suraj Samtani (Hong Kong)
My Secret
I don't know why I told you.
I don't know why I confided in you.
Without thinking I made you my confidant.
Without thinking I actually promoted my servant.
Yes, you've been with me since ages.
Yes, you've been with me in all my stages.
But I really don't know who you are.
But I really don't know where to put the bar.
You were with me in my times of need.
You were with me when my heart began to bleed.
For your loyalty you are applauded.
For your loyalty you are rewarded.
Please treasure it like your own.
Please treasure it like your only bone.
To you I will then be eternally indebted.
To you I will then be eternally connected.
