Skeletons in the Closet by Bevan Boggenpoel

 

What are you hiding

in a dark secret place?

don’t want it to be exposed

like a radiologists x-rays.

 

sins and secrets

you are protecting

not prepared to

bow to confessing.

 

you are like a door

shut and locked

whoever tries to enter

is being blocked.

 

the skeletons

your hidden treasure

no map to find

or ruler to measure.

 

the skeletons

in your closet

so many secrecies

lays their deposit.
