Love In Shadow
The journey that was us is unknown to many
Behind walls and close door we exist
Slipping quietly in to the shadow for stolen moment
We lived only in the dark
Our pleasure, desire a sinful one
In the light of day
I dare not look into eyes
I am afraid it will reflex my soul
Twisted, unashamed of loving you
I ache for you
Wish for the hungry way you kiss
The hungry way you demand for my touch
The shooting star of us become one
We are forever breaking free
In the shadow where we exist
The story of us lives in whispers and rumours
Within eardrops and behind backs
Never face to face
Never vibrantly within the beaming sun
Where there is no shadow for us to exist
