I told a whopper of a lie,

and as corroding years went by,

forgotten by the ones concerned

bright embers of my conscious burned.

 

Will I thaw the mystery,

that froze concealed by history.

Would knowing breach a blissful day,

friendship melt and fall away.

 

These spiny thoughts I fight,

juggling with regards to right,

shall I let the sleeping lay,

or, admit all and draw my pay.

I enjoyed your poem Robin, it's very evocative. Just wanted to point out the mispelling of "conscience" on the last line of the first stanza as it can jar the reader a little out of the flow of the poem.
