Three Lock Box

by Ronald Edwards   Oct 7, 2010


Secrets you have hid,
of things that you once did,
beneath the heavy lid,
of your three lock box.

Deep within your mind,
always for you to find,
actions that were unkind,
all in your three lock box.

At night do they return,
causing your soul to churn,
from memories that burn,
stored in your three lock box?

No keys for theyre all broken,
like lies that you have spoken,
buried within your coffin,
inside your three lock box.

    One lie grows into another lie and it keeps
    getting bigger just to hide a truth..
    A deep poem leaving the reader to think..take care.

    A pretty descent poem to say the least, the only thing I wasn't too found of was the rhyming as it seemed forced in places but other then that a fair poem of how we all have dark secrets that we keep inside, locked away where no one can ever see it. Good job and keep writing.
