Secrets

No that’s not true
your father didn’t die before your birth in service;
he was killed by your mother
that moment, froze and tainted my purpose;
I was only what 15 or 16
no not only, but I question “better late than never”;
the pain in secrets..
If kept too long, some should last forever;
2015 when I finally heard the full truth
now closer with my mother;
but it will forever be a one sided confession
despite the abuse, because you know, the unobvious missing other;
his family knows nothing of me
well, probably for the better;
he has kids and a son with my name, but like I said
some secrets should last forever;
