To My Secret Lover

i wish it was you and me, the way it should be mistakes were made and our time escaped stealing our true chance for romance i want you and you want me, but we cannot be we love in secrets concealing our passion from outside eyes peeling the layers of our clothing as i crumble the walls guarding my heart my lips adorn your body with encoded messages the secrets my kisses whisper along your skin only the two of us can understand i tried convincing myself it was only infatuation but the way your eyes, lips, and fingertips connect with mine infatuation is too far of an understatement to describe the desire the two of us confine if you’ll let me i will interlock the pain in your heart with the healing in mine i will submerge you in the depths of my ocean unleashing our deepest devotions i will awaken your inner euphoria exiling the afflictions that keep you from me i await the day i can finally unapologetically love you but until then, you’ll remain my secret lover the one i share my heart and soul with under the protection of the cover
