My Secret #2

Laying in space, a smile on your face Plastered there, you would catch me stare I smile lightly, blushing in the cheeks You kept that smile and occasionally peeked What if I had a secret to tell, one that presumably would not end well A secret that could break that smile you so subtly sealed A secret that would push me away from you because I was revealed So sweetly I stare into your eyes So genuinely mesmerized Would you have a clue? That I’ve done it without you? With another man? You might … But it will be my secret, because you’re under my spell A spell so cautiously conducted that you might as well Just keep that smile there and remain unaware As a deaf man being approached by a grizzly bear He’ll never know unless he turns around But chains prevent him from seeing the sound
