Nobody Knows

Everyday I wake and look forward
to logging in to our Poetry Soup,
because, I can't believe I found you
hidden among this eclectic group.

Actually, it was you, who
somehow stumbled upon me,
I have never met such a spirit
who was so alive and so free.

We talk nearly every single day
from early morning and late into the night,
your calming thoughts put me at ease
and make everything alright,

......and still nobody knows.

When we first met in the Fall
in late October of last year,
it was just after you had joined
but, I was already here.

My shy persona has changed
so much has happened since then,
only your eyes have seen me blossom
I'm more carefree than I've ever been.

We talk nearly every single day
from early morning and late into the night,
your calming thoughts put me at ease
and make everything alright,

......and still nobody knows.

I know we will always have
endless poetry to share,
you know how to take the words
to places only few would dare.

I hope to never lose you
you're the best friend that I've got,
only you can know my secret
that I think you're really hot.

We talk nearly every single day
from early morning and late into the night,
your calming thoughts put me at ease
and make everything alright,

......and still nobody knows.

...and still nobody knows.

Oh! I love the mystery that hangs around this write Kelly! Somehow I missed reading this beauty before! Yes, Soup has a way on how to connect people, and we all know that secrets are well kept, unless we decide to hang them out in the open. Congratulations on a very worthy win! // paul

I was shy and not very social when I first came to Poetry Soup, but it has changed me and I am more open than I've ever been. I have met many good friends here!.... Thank you for reading and commenting kindly on what I share, Cornel!

Thank you so much, Nette.... This was a fun poem to write. There are a few clues to the mystery hidden in here, but no one has guessed right, so far! :)

Dear Kelly, The Soup is a wonderful place to meet people who share a common interest. This must be a special person who entered your life and inspired such an uplifting poem. Truly, we can hope for no more than to have people willing to share our joys and sorrows at any time of the day or night. Dave will love this one! Best wishes in the contest. Love, Carolyn

Thank you for the nice comments, Carolyn. I appreciate it so much.... I have met many kind people here, and it's great to know that there are others out there, who share a passion for poetry. But, I have a lot in common with this person in particular, and it seems to go beyond the poetry.... I'm glad you enjoyed my poem, Carolyn and I hope that Dave will, too.
