Secrets of the soul

The smoke bellows out
high above the house,
the sins of the night
keep silent within
as the flames
reach their new height.
Watch the broken glass
as it shatters
to the floor,
the memories kept safe
locked away
behind closed doors.
Close your eyes
you try to escape,
hoping to leave
everything this time
but nothing ever changes,
you just find new walls
to hide behind.
The broken, battered
lies are left to torture
the next.

The fire rages
leaving behind the only secrets
