Losing a Piece of Me

I have a secret.
A secret that chased me away from my home, my family, away from the only man I’ve ever loved.
I took that secret and pushed it down inside of me.
So far down, that it never had a chance of coming out.
That dirty little secret was like a seed. A seed that took root and grew to become a piece of me.
But what happens when that secret has finally outgrown me?
When its vines climb over every wall I have in place?
When it finally overfills that little spot inside of me that it’s been buried in for so long now?
All secrets come out eventually.
I just hope mine doesn’t destroy everyone I love.
