Random Thoughts *40* Mirrored Refrain

--Secret Affair--

Emotionally drained, depression rains,
with her this stress is freed.
Must we keep us on the down-low,
a secret affair that will never concede?

Love struck, stuck, laying embraced,
she runs her fingers through my Afro. 
A secret affair that will never concede,
must we keep us on the down-low?

A freak, unique , got her sweating my technique.
Weak, as I gently massage her feet.
Must we keep us on the down-low,
a secret affair that will never concede?

I'll help her undress, caress with finesse,
I'm under the spell she has bestowed.
A secret affair that will never concede,
must we keep us on the down-low?

Whines of pleasure, sublime, this valentine.
Red wine, and dine. A match kept best discreet.
Must we keep us on the down-low,
a secret affair that will never concede?

A date, with fate, for eighteen hours straight.
Alive, my souls aglow.
A secret affair that will never concede,
Must we keep us on the down-low?

**Both single adults, no families will be broken by this Secret Affair**

What an interesting formatt, and a difficult one, I find. I have actually, given it a try but more than likely did not get it correct. It is a challenge, and I love a challenge and it is really a mind bending experience to write. I am going to keep trying writing this formatt... and eventually perhap, I will get it... thanks so much, for the inspiration... Constance

OK Jared. The format is clear! I guess you must keep it down-low...IF it is to remain a secret. > Broken hearts. Take care, friend. Smiles, Dane Ann

Thanks for the nice comment. The design was accidental, as it followed the words intent.

Jared I enjoyed reading you random toughts of a secret affair.. I wrote one once called *Two Lives Meet* It is sad when love has to be hidden. But white lies can aid to ones sanity....for some. For the others coming from the down-low into boring reality could be hard on ones mind and heart if it hurts others. Very good keep it up.

Well, I don't know about this one. Keep the creative pen flowing. If it is an affair, my advice is to stop. Sara
