We go about our daily lives, Talking to each other as if We are no more than friends. To those around us, that is all we are. They don’t feel the hidden love in our words

They don’t see the look in our eyes, The love and caring that is there. We go about life in our everyday manner, Pretending to the outside world.

But in the shadows, we share a hidden kiss To let each other know that the love is there And remains strong.

In the darkness, no one sees, The love that we share, The commitment to one another. The caring for one another. The sharing with each other.

They do not see our passion, Or our pain that we feel when The other hurts.

When we are in that darkness, And that quiet place we have claimed for our own, we block the outside world. This is our place and time, and no one is allowed to enter.

We are a what each others needs And wants. We are there for each other In more ways than anyone will ever know. We try to deny what we feel at times, Knowing that our love would not be understood By the world.

Our love is forbidden, and we must keep its secret, We keep it hidden deep with in our hearts and souls. Forever for us to hold, but for the world to never see.

They will ever know what we share within our hearts, And what they whisper to each other. No one will ever See within our souls, and know how deep our love is.

For to the world we are just friends. And nothing more, But within our Hearts and souls, we are Secret lovers. With a love that Is forbidden for the world to see.
