Dark Places

My love for you lurks
in all the dark places.
Making sure it
leaves no traces;
for others to see
what you mean to me.

Never to see the
light of day,
in the shadows
It must stay.
No light needed
for this love to grow,
just the hidden
attention you show.

It is noticed by a few,
but they do not believe
It is true.
I marvel at what
they cannot see,
when it is so
plain to me.

So it stays in all
the dark places;
sometimes shows itself
on our faces.

I will keep it there,
hidden somewhere;
between the dark
and the light.
Who knows...
maybe someday..
might.
Cast its own
shadow
in the light.
