“Dark Secret”
Everywhere I go, I see a vision….
a mirage in the midst of a parched desert.
Something that I long for but am not even allowed to think about.
And yet slowly I die inside,
Yearning even for a glimpse of that mirage…
Everywhere I look,
I see him in my mind’s eye..I wish with all my heart that I can just be allowed to miss him.
My hand shakes and my body scorches,
thirsts for a replay.
Another chance to relive the scenes in my not so distant past.
Somewhere in the deepest abyss of my soul,
is a muffled voice that cries out this yearning,
And yet I hope nobody will ever hear me,
For I am not allowed to be heard.
He is the mirage in my parched desert.
And I walk aimlessly…
until I find him again even for just another glimpse…
Yes, this hope is what keeps me alive, for now.
