I met you on the crossroads
Of a silent, whispering despair
Secrets exchanged were added to the many skeletons in the closet
Of all the lies, this one was most unfair
You touched the Ying that only my Yang knows
Guilty pleasures conflicted my mind
And my body betrayed me as my eyes closed
Only your love can save me this time
Why? Why must I continue to touch you
Why must I continue to want to feel you?
Why is the essence of what is his wanting to be yours?
I wonder if he's doing the same thing too
In the midst of my betrayal, he sees me
My skin has been touched, savored, wanted
The lust in his eyes that was only for me is fading
He notices the change in my Ying to his Yang
But he still loves me; even though my body was not his
You are my escape
My guilty love
My conflict in a life that is already predetermined
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
But I know, my body will betray me
And I'll come back to you again
"you are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray"
Author notes
It has helped me in many ways because sometimes i just want to get away from it all but sometimes you have to wait on love to find the struggle. because if you seek it. it will be more than what you can handle. my secrets
