Secret Desire

Secret Desire

A Poem by Trace
"

From my "Desires Series"

"



It started one day in the springtime


A flower was placed on her chair


With out a note, no reason or rhyme


Nobody knew from whom or where,


 


He told himself, it could never be


She would never be interested in him


And it was more than easy enough to see


The chance for love was less than slim,


 


For he was just a working Joe


And she was from a different class


There was no way that she could know


He viewed her through a looking glass,


 


Yet unbeknownst to him, it appears


That she was also sad and lonely


Between her own contradictions and fears


Still looking for her one and only,


 


He snuck the flowers every now and then


And she would pick them up and smile


Though she didn’t know just how or when


He enjoyed seeing her happiness for a while,


 


Then one day he got up the mettle


Though he didn’t let her know it was he


But a single rose with pink colored petals


Place on her desk with this simple decree,


 


“I have wondered for what seems like forever


And I’ve worried you would push me away


Could I get up the nerve and endeavor


If I were to ask you out, what would you say?


 


Forgive me for being presumptuous


But I must finally be bold and inquire


For I no longer want to be anonymous


Because you are my Secret Desire.

If Prince Charming wrote poetry, this would be the result! A *sigh*-worthy piece, Trace!

Heavy sigh! What a wonderful love story this is. So romantic. I want to know if she said yes and they ended up together! (by the way, I will be singing "Uptown Girl" all day now!) Loved it, Trace. Lydi**
