A serious limerick
Sometimes, I lock truths up in my heart for fear they could tear me apart. I can but haw and hem when I think to speak them, and when writing... even to start... smarts.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)

This limerick is awesome and I enjoyed it much more than the usual light hearted limerick. We do repress truth but truth will always find a way of being expressed… best to open the lock – as Shrek says “Better out than in”!

Brilliant
Just the way you say
And then have the courage to write them.
It is a serious limerick – and rings so true!
We often lock up secrets.
