The Secret I Will Keep


Sizzling inside me now

A fire that can never be put out

A fascinating fresh feeling

Was only in my heart a misleading

An all-natural sweetness like honey

Only to realize I was a dummy

I served myself hope

But now I cannot cope

In your eyes a beautiful golden brown

In my eyes enough tears to make me drown

Your awarness the size of a bee

My desire the size of the sea

But all this is not your fault 

And I will put a halt to these feelings

I will keep this secret with me

Until my meat falls off my bones 

And I am under a huge stone

For we are not meant to be

I finally see that you love her 

And not me
