The Notebook of secrets
That note book of Shame
Those papers that were not
Meant to ever be read
Except to the one I wrote it to
The shame that would be if it was found
The embarrassment
That notebook that held the secrets
Was cleaned out and that secret
Was thrown away
Only to be found and read by
One person, one friend
The humiliation that came
The embarrassment that followed
To that friend I wish you wouldn’t have
I’m sorry if I let you down.
