DEBT TO THE FAMILIAR

Folder: 
JOURNAL#16

should I happen upon some misguided

fortune of fame

a certain secret that was once held so very dear

will soon enough become known

and the attention showered upon me will point the

nasty finger to a woman child's fondest regards

for a once mere boy she couldn't have

who has now fully grown

how so very very bloody embarrassing

but I guess he and I will just have to learn

to live with such knowledge................
