NaPoWriMo 2024 Day 18 – i’m that fly

I’m that fly

I’m that fly on the wall you see
observing things no one should know
burdened by confidentiality 
that builds and builds, I fear I’ll blow
one day when others least expect
I’ll spill the most salacious things
the beans, the cookies, truth, you bet!
sweet on the tongue with power to sting
secrets out for all to see, secretly
I’d love to let it all hang out, imagine
what a scandal that would be
but I’m known for my loyalty 
conscientious to a tee…
for once I’d love to flip a switch
and lose the nice me, be a bitch
