Anne-Lise Andresen Poet Couplet

Notes About The Poem

- My Secret - If Only You Knew -

If only you knew, I'm in love with you
That you're happily married doesn't make me blue

I have to use this rhythm to run through
The secrets can be dangerous to my marriage too

Hope my honesty gives rings in the water - a breakthrough
Just let me kiss your lips once, soft and true

I admit, sweetheart I've dreamed about you (... taboo)
Of course, it can be seen as quite private, I know

But your wife and my husband have no clue
Forgive me for all my words and thoughts - I 
                                                               Love
                                                               You
