Analysis of Secret Love



Your hands caress me in ways I have long forgotten,

Your lips trace pathways to my soul melting my inner being,

It was as if time stood still when you whispered my name,

A longing I never realized could exist again sent ripples across my skin,

The need and passion was awoken again, but this time it was different,

Passions hands held me helpless in your grasp, only you could free me,

The rituals that have already begun millions of years ago seemed to glow anew when I was with you,

I knew it was not to last, just some fore long feelings leftover from the past,

You seem to be my only hope in the world so lost and cold,

I'll hold on to this feeling, this moment, as long as I can,

The pleasure will repeat again and again until the day was must part,

For I belong to him in the day, but you have my heart.
