Her


Admiring her 
Personally hiring her
To be mine 
Eyes shining at her sight 
She might avoid the light 
Or deny the fight 
That is us 
Relying on obscurity
To maintain security 
Keep open opportunity 
Our love could be detrimental 
A heteronormative world 
Our love could be detrimental 
Could remove opportunity 
Or hinder security 
So what's required is obscurity 
This must be us 
A constant fight 
Searching for the light 
While remaining out of sight 
She is mine 
I am hers 
Silently admiring her
