Dear Diary,
Lock it, Like a Locket
Lock and Key
The love is security
No password, No entry
Locked in pages
Ripped in lines
No spaces, complete lines.
Lock it, Like a Locket
Secrets in my mind
I hope no one sees it
I stash it underneath my pillow.
My Dear Diary
Lock it, Like a Locket
I hope no one knows the pages
I write my secrets on.
Lock it, Like a Locket
My tears become my jar of hearts
No remorse on these lines
Just the paper cuts of scars
Where tears left their watermark
Visibility blurred I am no longer conscious
Thoughts have been switched to mind control
I only hope my diary is safe
Because I would hate for those secrets to be exposed.
Lock it, Like a Locket
Time out, whodunit?
Someone stole my diary, who’s the culprit?
Footprints left a trace of roses and petals
Where his ring became my paper cuts of scars
If only his lips didn’t turn those roses into poisonous thorns.
Lock it, Like a Locket
I am can almost taste the glass on his lips
that has now hit me like shards of quicksand
he would rather play a game than to bite his tongue.
Lock it, Like a Locket
Either give me back my diary
Or you’ll have to lose the glass
That unlocks the key
To the biggest secret of all
My heart
Which is why I lock it, like a locket.
A beautiful poem of secrets and love.
