Keep your life hidden, not on display,
Jealousy comes from those who stay.
No one can steal what they can't see,
Keep your secrets, your privacy.
To tell your plans brings downfall's way,
Your secrets shared, your trust will sway.
Some give advice with hidden aim,
To watch you fail, to bring you shame.
Only those who enter your door,
Can harm your family even more.
Weaknesses known by those so near,
Protect your secrets, guard them dear.
Set boundaries firm, but don't withdraw,
Let no one overstep the law.
Trust few, reveal to none your life,
For friends can change and bring you strife.
Those once so close, now feared the most,
For secrets shared, your heart engrossed.
Keep secrets yours, your home a fort,
Let not the closest tales distort.
Refrain from sharing every gain,
And hold your tongue in times of pain.
Control your anger, joy, and grace,
Think of the future, keep your pace.
