So Many Secrets

"No one may ever know"

So many secrets, so many lies,
So many times we hid from their eyes.

Something about you, elegant grace,
Drew me to try to light up your face. 

When will you seek me, when will you come.
When may we speak up, stop playing mum.

Watching the finches, flutter and feed
Outside my window, filling their need.

Think of tomorrow, what it may bring,
Winter's upon us, far from our spring.

Just for a moment singing inside,
Thinking I'm with you, there by your side.

Then it will vanish, only in dreams.
It's not the truth, it's not what it seems.

So many sorrows, so many cries,
So many times we've been so unwise.

Wanting is hidden, cannot be seen.
Mustn't be noticed, that's how it's been.

Rare are the moments when we may touch
Feeling the passion, sweet lover's clutch.

Somber and sober, day after day,
Waiting and hoping, needing to play.

Knowing you're laughing deep down inside,
Knowing I did that, I can take pride.

But when you're crying, that is my shame.
Both of us loving, where is the blame.

Dear are the memories of those few times
Our lips were touching, what were the crimes.

So many secrets, so many lies,
So many times we felt guilty sighs.

Beautiful my friend. A secret love with stolen moments ~ especially love the last two lines.
It's good to write pieces that so many can understand and relate to, yes? Thanks, dear girl. :)
Simply beautiful
Thank you, Roger.
Truth. Fact. Life. Loved it, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for reading, E.
I decided to read this a few times before leaving a comment. There's a complexity buried in the simplicity. I really like this one. Thank you for sharing, Lorenzo. :)
Thank you, Tamara. I hope anyone can relate to it. :)

Thank you, Rick.
Excellent work, I really enjoyed reading this. A sombre mood, filled with longing, desire and lust. :) Great work as always.
Glad you enjoyed it, Laura. Thanks for letting me know how you felt.
That is beautiful, sinful, secret lust and longing. There are so many good things happening here. Maybe someone will do something equally good and award it an RR.
That's a wonderful commentary. I really appreciate it.
You're more than welcome, it was a wonderful poem.
Secretive, illicit, pain and joy...you've captured all the emotions from desire to guilt. Excellent.
Thanks for the nice comment, Alan.
This sounded like a beautiful song....lovely bestie..???
Great, my darling bestie. So glad you are up late and reading this. :) -@
I’m not much of a poetry aficionado, but this is really lovely and evocative. Thanks for sharing it with your fellow Lushies!
It's very nice of you to give me a good comment. I appreciate that.
Gosh, I wasn't familiar with this form of poem, but each two lines were so expressive and could stand alone with such meaning. I've read it twice and it is more beautiful each time. So easy to relate to one's own feelings. This goes in my favorites. Your work is always a delight to read.
I'm so pleased you liked this one, Elizabeth. Thanks for the kind comments.
Beautifully written and lovely rhyme, love the first and last stanza. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful words and have a wonderful day, Larry [bh]

Thank you, dear lady. I'm always so pleased when you give me some sweet words. :)
Oh wow this is so beautiful. It touches the heart :) [bh] for you !
Thank, little Sara. I love to hear your kind comments. [bh]
