They're on her legs, mostly.
That's the explanation for the
Baggy jeans and the buried tears.
Promise not to tell?
Divulged secrets
Take a lifetime to earn
And only an hour to spill.
Lying on the heavy bed,
Cursing the new weight
Heaved upon it.
Wondering if
Guidance Counselor R-Z
Will understand her plight
Completely.
Or if he will force up the pant legs
And assume the rest.
You promised not to tell.
You promised.

Wow. That's really good. I especially like the line "a lifetime to earn." Well done.
And good luck handling that situation, too.
sad, disturbing, powerful . . .
