Secrets hidden

Will soon be revealed

From the seed we planted

Lies that sprouted, out

To prevent them from seeing

The love that we built

We lock and cage it

Protect and nurture

So they can't break

This fragile love

Forbidden by nature

Avoided by most

But I've already fallen

It's inevitable

Your beauty, your grace

Your smile and your laughter

The images of your face

I still remember

When you cried

Because you couldn't take

Living with this lie

But I can't give up

Sanguine and hopeful

That one day we can live

Free from the judgement

Accepted by all

Holding your hand

Until we grow old
