The Secret

The Secret

The dark is a place, where I sit and I dream; it relaxes my soul, and calms all the screams.

I think of my life, and what I want to do; I plan for a future, that I can spend with you.

I search and I struggle, to find the old me; I think he’s long gone, for never more to be.

As I sift through the pieces, of what I once was; I long for my love, that came from above.

My life is a puzzle, that’s not clean or neat; it’s a search for another, to make my picture complete.

I curse at the sun, and pray for the night; if I am lost in the shadows, then I’ll survive the fight.

I sit here in silence, just bidding my time; for I’m just a big secret, waiting in line.

I love her so much, she’s one of a kind; I hope I’m the one, when she makes up her mind.

I’ve waited so long, to be the one that she wants; I’m lost in my mind, reliving my haunts.

What will I do, what will I say; if I’m left all alone, at the end of this day.

I’ve suffered so much, I’ve lost all I had; my heart won’t survive, if this all goes bad.

She’s my last hope, she’s my last chance; to experience true love, and finish this dance.

When all is a mess, I’m the one she will call; she has faith in me, to stop the fall.

I’ve done what I can, my heart I have passed; I hope she is careful, it’s fragile as glass.

 I’m the one in her dreams, when she closes her eyes; when she knows I am near, it makes her heart fly.

I’m a secret for now, but this is what’s true; we’re in love with each other, and we can see this through.

With my hand on your neck, with the gentlest of touch; I kiss your sweet lips, and make you quiver so much.

Our hearts are in tune, with this love that we share; I’m the one that you want, because I’ve always been there.

With the truth being told, and the secret is out; you denied my existence, and cast me about.

The lies that you told, without taking a breath; has stripped me of will, as I welcome my Death.
