Forbidden Love
Creeping, quiet
Secret meetings in hidden corners
Shhh! They’ll hear…
Silent, desperate embraces
Whispered words,
Pounding hearts.
Footsteps!
Sink deeper into shadows
Deeper…
Hidden…
They fade.
Is it safe?
The moment passed
Too many interruptions, too many demands.
Emerge from darkness
Cast off the shadow blanket
Frustrated, unsatisfied
Head check, right… left…
Moving together
Closer, closest.
One last, lingering kiss
Goodnight.
