Secrets......between friends
She was my friend.
My best friend
She swore she'd never tell
It was my shame
He abused me
Made me do unspeakable things
So now my other friend, Sylvia,
Looks at me oddly.
She knows too
I no longer want to go out
Anywhere.

I hope that's a betrayal that was able to not cause you much heartache, Robert (if it's autobiographical, that is...)
Great ink, though...

I guess we can measure someone's loyalty/friendship by the amount of support once a secret comes out.
Nicely done robert.

Ya. In my own life I found out that things told in confidence don't stay there very long.

Thank you for your competition entry. This gave me pause for thought - I hope it's not from direct experience? Anyway, real friends don't tell other people secrets like that. Urgh. I'd want to be rid of someone like that!

Sometimes ''friends'' don't bother with keeping confidences. PS: this was not based on personal experience. Regards, Robert.

I'm glad it didn't actually happen to you.
Anyway, if I asked a friend to keep a secret and they blabbed... they would be an ex-friend!
