Hidden

by Dust Silver   Nov 17, 2015


Twice this week, I saw you
nothing had changed.
In their eyes we are strangers
in secret, are gladly good friends.
Saying hi should be an option
but I really don't know how.
Still, I am feeling awkward
even seeing you in a mile.

Afar I can see you smile
it really brighten my day.
A sunshine shining brightly
lifting the darkness away.
I hear a laugh escape your lips
your deep voice soothe my heart.
Realized it is holed and empty
suddenly filled up inside.

Walking back to my place
I ponder our hidden messages.
All honest, fun, sweet, forbidden
compatibility at its finest.
Wondering should we move forward
and give in to our hearts.
Or maintain being the usual strangers
that are undeniably in love.

    I loved your poem. The secret friendship that others can't see reminded me of friendships all around the World that cannot be. Years ago when I lived in the Philippines I had a group of friends. One of which was Muslim. His family and friends found out that he and his non Muslim friends were hanging around with me a Westerner. After that if I joined the group he had to leave incase anyone saw him talking to me unless we were all meeting up miles away from the city. It's such a shame that some peoole judge individuals of other cultures or beliefs without actually getting to know them

    "In their eyes we are strangers
    in secret, are gladly good friends."

    ^ there should be a comma after strangers or a period.

    That said, I can relate to this piece, this mirrors what I've went through in the past, and remained to be just friends, when we should have moved forward, I think it's better to do and regret, then regret not doing at all. Anyways sorry for the tangent, I like this piece, it's honest and relatable.
