Keeping My Desires Hidden
I put on a face
because truthfully if I did anything else
it would give it all away
He can't know what I feel
what I wish could be real
because if the idea should arise
I wouldn't ever be able to look him
in the eye again.
I don't want to ruin our friendship
with my silly little shenanigans.
The fact that I can't control my heart
acceleration when he is around is my own
damn problem.
I've already shoved it off as a crush
that has already gotten beyond my
control but no one has to know
I'll carry this little secret alone
