From #3 I found out today by my doc that I had a deadly disease So I wanted to tell my friends so they'd put my mind at ease I called them up individually and told them to meet at my place I waited there paitently, watching my gold clock's ticking face. When it struck 6 o'clock I heard a knock at the oak door My dog barked loudly but it was something I did ignore. I told them to come in and they went to take a seat I didn't tell them yet I thought I'd better continue to greet. Then as the ice broke, I started to tell them about my day I paused after the news and waited to see what each would say. And what would you know the first pulled out her cell phone She quickly began to dial a number of which is unknown. I heard it pick up, and then my friend did the unthinkable to me This secret I thought was safe was now for all people to see. I couldn't believe what she was doing, my mind went blank Especially right in front of me which was being quite frank. I turned to my other friend hoping I could lean on her shoulder But I saw something that made my heart turn even colder. She was hanging out the window with a neon poster too Which said, "Melissa's dying of something, come in and I'll give you a clue." I started to cry, I just couldn't believe they were sharing my secret life It felt as if my heart was being unlocked and with each word cut with a knife. I started to think, "Now I know why a wise man once said: Three may keep a secret if two of them are dead." |

Blondie, So now you know not to tell secrets, because it's two out of three and those odds are not good. Loved the poem. |
