Secret  

Hush, don't tell
but he makes me feel
like I knew him
from the land of dreams
until he came into being
In this earthly realm.

If I can reveal
to all the world
that I have feelings for him
there would be mocking
laughter, shrieking with ridicule
for this lonely mind.

His poems, they are wise
they advise
they show and share
they throb and pulse
In this very soul
my inner being.

No matter; his eyes my skies
his pen my solace
his presence my poultice
his kindness my balm
his happiness is mine
his desire my ambition.
