Hide the sad smile <br />Show the world a lie <br />It’s you that he wants <br />When questioned, denied <br />The lust that he feels <br />Kept hidden inside <br />A soul mate in time <br />Two wishes reside <br /> <br />Her feelings concealed <br />Truth buried so deep <br />To no one revealed <br />Alone she does weep <br />And long for the day <br />Together they sneak <br />And fulfill her dream <br />A true lover’s leap <br /> <br />All alone with himself <br />Heavy-hearted he sits <br />Dreaming and longing <br />In a world of what-if <br />He stares from a distance <br />The secret he keeps <br />Thoughts and desires <br />Safe when he sleeps <br /> <br />So reserved and so proper <br />She longs to be free <br />The ties and constraints <br />Familial responsibility <br />Of class and of station <br />And damn high society <br />To just cast it aside <br />Oh how sweet it would be<br /><br />Payyton Egerstaffer<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wanting-27/
