Brother (03172026)

gazing into the dark eyes of a vintage photo of a infant I stumbled on a family secret that revealed itself to me suddenly I recognize myself as the secret keeper of a secret I do not want to keep " I do not want to keep the secret that must be told" I do not wish to hurt the soul tormented by the secret kept how am I any different from those who kept the secret to death I can't unsee the truth I can no longer believe the lie I'm sick inside I could be wrong but you have your father's eyes
