Secrets

Her life had been very simple back then doing daily chores and watching the innocents learn and grow even as she struggled to maintain a relationship that her early life had not prepared her for. It was hard at the best of times for she and her loved one were very different people and there was so much she did not know about how to do that in a good way. If the truth were known they were probably doomed before they even got started because of her defective outlook and the lens that she viewed the world with. His life had not been anything to write home about either though and so they started down a road together but did not get very far before their world was torn apart by misunderstanding and the secret that came to life after being hidden for twenty seven years. Their foundation did not have time to become strong enough to stand up under the storms and was completely washed away under the secrets impact. She disappeared into herself unable to talk about what had happen to her and her soul shriveled up leaving only room for the innocents and those who were to stubborn to let her shut them out of her life. It was easier to fight with her loved one because he was there, to mangle him because the keeper of the secret was out of reach and she was looking for someone to take it out on. Now eighteen years later she understands the nature of secrets having spent these past years doing nothing but going over and over it in her mind. Laying awake at night looking at it from every angle and still she wonders if it was her lesson to learn or those who carry the scars of the battle.
