Hush...

by Shauni   Sep 6, 2006


Our secret love,
As we stand behind these open doors,
I can tell the world,
But they still don't know,
As they look beyond us,
As we are invisible to each other,
Because we turn our heads,
But we open our mouths to speak.

My words full of the most noticeable affections,
As I can feel the hint as he covers his up with the nasty words,
How I know he loves me?
Because his words know so much,
As he repeats the words I spoke just seconds ago,
Does he listen,
Listen to my outbursts and break downs.

He smiles as the people pass by,
And all they see is nothing between us,
Just the few feet of silence,
That still lingers with the echoes of each words.

A listen for a heart beat,
It's the only thing I want to hear,
Just so I know he is close enough,
I want to know,
Are you there, Are you here?

"I won't ever leave you alone,"
He repeats every time I tell him to leave me alone,
A smirk on his lips as he says it,
Hidden inside,
The tears no one knows.

This is our secret love,
They don't know,
They don't know us,
Us...
Why doesn't it role off my tongue.

Why does he hush me?
Hush...Hush,
I will never leave you alone,
I just don't want them to know!
