Love Concealed

Love concealed

Of a truth,  I wish time could be rewind
Back to the days of my innocency
I wish I could see your inviting smiles again
Hear your soothing words,  so precious 
I was in love but couldn't say it

That feeling that leaves me in dilemma 
To confess the war within,  so troubling 
Was it the fear of having NO for YES
Or that I wasn't sure of my intention
Though we met like a mere passerby 
But in me,  lies the burning passion

Hungered to let the cat out of bag
That day we sat at the restaurant 
I thought the call you received was from a lover
I had to swallow my spilt and erase the feeling
The battle was endless,  I couldn't win
It was a true love,  concealed! 

But now,  I feel so unbelievable 
Realising , then the feeling was mutual
That you waited for me to spill it
Helping my courage with your First Class hugs
Those pecks coming through Bluetooth medium
The time and attention you gave to me
So real and true from a woman that cares
Love,  true love,  unexpressed 

Now,  the second change is like impossibility 
Like a president that blew his first term
Second term would demand some rigging 
But how could I rig through for a true love ?
Now that another man has taken my place 
The hugs and pegs from you aren't coming again
It was really a love so concealed

I will profess my love without delay 
To another woman that I may love 
Love concealed gave me no second chance
And I will not give 'love concealed' a second chance 
To deprive me of having the woman I love
