I'll tell you a secret
Promise you won't tell
*Gasp* But if I unveil it
You will despise me

So I'll reveal to you a little bit
And let you find out, in your way
If you happen to be correct
Swear to me you won't turn round and walk away

Here it goes:

I was only eight
I happened to come home late
And what I saw
Was the rise of our dreadful fate

Screams, shouts, cries, wails
Everything rejection could entail
Suitcase zipped open
Clothes compactly packed

Then an infuriated look in my eye
Foreboding me
Terrorising me
He had enough

Now the door became accessible
For a lifetime withdrawal
Without a goodbye
He pursued into the night

Straight away, she started to weep
His mistakes, bickering, actions cut her deep
But I got changed and went to bed
Hoping tomorrow it will get back to normal

Next day dawned
And I awoke with a yawn
The house was still hollow
Even the walls were feeling lonely

I knew then
Last night wasn't a hoax
It was concrete truth...
He has gone.

But a week later he returned
A kiss here and a hug there
An apology here and a forgiveness there
In the end they shook hands to another beginning

But. I still have a scar
A very deep scar
Even a dear remedy won't let it go by far
For it's too deep and the memories still bleed

And bleed and bleed
and bleed and bleed ... ...
