You’ll find that knowing something that was never meant to be known isn’t a good thing…a short poem on what everyone loves…unless they’re the topic.

the strength of their wanting

is like gold and its miser

but when they know the juicy fact

they find they’re none the wiser

people love to jabber on

the latest news, she’s got

but in any other conversation

she finds she is less sought

friends hesitate before telling

for she’ll often end up yelling

all their secrets to the world, and they were meant

to be locked up safe and never told without consent

spill a secret

lose a friend

your story will have

a sorry end.
