Hiding

Hiding

from someone

Disappearing

behind a curtain

always out of reach

never close enough

to grab out and

help

Falling

flat on your face

Secrets

untold and unmentioned

never knowing

never showing

never caring

never noticing

Details

accented in the moonlight

warm and misty features glow

bright like stars in the velvet black night

You

standing there, hugging

yourself

slightly shivering in the cold, dark night

Your

green eyes glimmer

ever so gently

reaching out

for one another

finding out

needing

overcomes

longing,

wanting

Together

lost in different worlds

won't admit

can't admit

this perfect instance

all by chance

standing

waiting

until the sun rises

a new day

Begins

with us

not You

not Me

just Us

Together

at last

hand in hand

in the same world

of fear and longing

and hope and serenity

together

because You

were all I ever needed
