SECRET DIARY

Our eyes met briefly,
words were left unspoken.
I had hoped it was but a flickering crush,
alas my poor heart knew no rest …

The first kiss opened up floodgates
- for me, obviously not you;
else why flinch at that first touch?
Why let me in only to shut me out?

Magical, powerful, beyond description
- how maddening can an addiction be?
A high no one else can please
and yet my tongue I bite each time you leave …

Lovers in our own secret world
when we do what we know best;
yet two worlds apart
with eyes of stone observing the trend …

I can’t reach to your heart;
what lies ahead if I stay?
Do I ask the world of you
to pretend a lil for me?
