Hidden Love
You knocked, and I opened the door of my life
The welcome mat to my heart took in your first steps
You crossed the threshold and my strong foundation weakened with the weight of your words, your touch, your kiss
When you held me, all my broken pieces melted together
As we entertained the thought of being together
An emotional bond built on trust fueled a desire we couldn’t deny
While storms raged outside, threatening to wreck our world
I lay in bed wondering if you will come back to me
Two lovers denied the night, stealing moments in their days
A fire still burns inside of me, the glow of passion smolders deep within
You occupy the rooms of my soul yet I feel so abandoned
A house whose walls hold secrets not meant for others to hear
We left the doors and windows wide open
The breeze whispers through, echoing your name
The clock on the wall still chimes as time marches on
If I could stop it, I would, just for one more moment with you
It’s a place I visit often, but it’s not the same without you there
