Shameful Lover

behind those closed doors
you adore every part of me,
from the icy mountain peaks to the summer shores!
but,you never touch me..
You don't even look at me 
when everyone can see...

you like my light 
when it's not too bright.
you like my smile
when i don't laugh too loud.

You don't want your reputation to fall to the ground
So in private your love is bold and bright,
but in public...my name is never even spoken
because you do love me,but only when im hidden
