Secrets

Got a secret,
can you keep it,
swear this one you'll save,
better lock it in your pocket,
takin this one to the grave.
If I show you then I know you won't tell what I say,

Cause 2 can keep a secret if 1 of them is dead
~"Secret" The Pierces: Thirteen tales of Love and Revenge

This is...
My life to Welcome.
"Secrets"

Secrets, everyone has them. Yes, even you who is reading this shaking your head saying to yourself, "Yeah right, whatever I don't have any secrets." Yet you do, I know you do. Whether it's that stack of porn you stole from your dads room. Maybe you aren't a virgin anymore and youre parents don't know, maybe not even your friends. Maybe you are crushing on the school nerd and you are popular. Maybe you stole one of your friends favorite lipstick. No matter how big, or how small that secret is. You still have it and it will always be there.

Now, the question is, what do you do with secrets others tell you? You probs are telling yourself that you have kept every secret that your friends have told you, but how true is that? Now we are back to that "two can keep a secret". In the song "Secret" by The Pierces, you all may have heard of it as the theme song for the new show "Pretty Little Liars" on ABC Family, they have a lyric that says "Why when we do our darkest deeds do we tell? They burn in our brains, become a living hell, cause everybody tells, everybody tells..." and it's true. When was the last time your friend told you something they didn't want you to tell anyone? Good now that you got it, what did you do with that information? Did you keep it locked in your pocket? Or did you "accidently" spill the beans to another? I can tell you that 90% of the people that read this have spilled that little secret to somebody else.

But why? I have no clue, maybe when someone tells us something so private we feel like we are apart of something, something exclusive, but sometimes when it's just too good that we know we have this thing on our chest we just have to tell the closest person to us. We tell the secret that isn't so secret anymore, yet we promise that next person to never tell either but we all know it will get around.

So once again, my question to you is....
When you are around your friends, can you trust them? Or is it all just a front that we will never get past?
