Secrets, Something that should only be kept to yourself, yet you let me in. You trusted me with your words, and now I must hold it forever, As once it is said, it is lost. I held my breath, But I knew I couldn’t for very long. I tried my hardest, But it was never enough.

Friendship, One of the strongest bonds between people, yet so fragile. You always trusted me, Thought I would always have your back. And I wanted it that way too. I held my breath, But I was running out of air. I said goodbye to you, And now you know why.

Betrayal, To become the villain in your story. I lost all your trust, yet I was so relieved. I was loyal, I held my breath, But my time came to an end. I released your words, let them loose in the air. And at the same time I know I lost you as well.
