Secret Love

I keep my love for you a secret sheltered from all that I fear 
I am sworn to secrecy like an anonymous message left in a bottle bound for some distant shore 
I search depp within the recesses of my heart and mind
To find the answer that that I desperately long for 
I tell myself that am loved to holding on steadfast loving you to the core 
But for now I will keep my love for you a secret 
A hidden agenda that nobody knows holding it sacred like some age old prophecy
I keep my love for you a secret promising to never divulge the depth of my love for you
I keep my love for you a secret clan destined only by the veil of time
Secretly I wave a banner in the air as I proclaim to be the victor of this secret love affair
Eagerly anticipating the day when kismet comes to call 
But for now I will keep my love for you a secret
