One More Secret
Perplexed,
I continue
to take this
drifting dream.
Who wouldn’t?
I am with you.
I would not have
it any other way.
Still, it is not
real. I know.
Perplexed,
we hold hands
for the first
time. We kiss
for the first time.
It feels strange in
the morning when
I see you.
I keep one
more secret
to myself.
