The Dangerous Secret

By Emily Martinez

By Emily Martinez Published 6 years ago 1 min read
This poem is about my life and what I've been going through for about a year.

At first, you told me that we could be together.

But, little did I know that keeping a secret was like silence.

Not being able to see you was damaging me mentally;

It just makes me feel like I’m losing you.

I don’t want to lose something so precious as to what we have.

Those unforgettable memories that we shared;

The times that I would sneak out to come and be with you.

Day after day I am missing you more.

Just watching those couples out there holding hands,

Warns me of how that’s never going to be us.

A wish that I desire the most is to have what I want in life.

That is to be with the one person that I love.

The secret that caused me an awful lot of pain and trouble.

But, in the end, it was a secret that valued a great deal to me.
