Secret lies

Rain covers the eyes of my heart now opened,

by the softest touch felt inside I cannot breathe.

Nothing here to take away what I have for you,

warm embrace covered by this storm.

I have a secret that I have been keeping,

one that would destroy who I am.

When I look to the stars it is you I see,

like a river of light coming home.

The is always this scent I am needing,

of your tongue pressed on my neck.

All the things I lie about today,

are the deepest secrets I can keep.

The way the water glistens from your flesh,

makes me scream so silently your name.

I wait for you to see who I am,

but in your presence I don’t know how to speak.

I feel the winds carrying your aroma,

tempting me with desires so true.

I can almost feel your hands on my body,

as your lips meet mine in the night.

The secret I have is that I love you,

in my eyes you are all that I see.

Love made from dreams reality cries,

here is my secret, that is not a lie.
