Secret Shame

A fall; a whisper
of what was wrong.
A cry for help
in a world without hope.

Trying so hard to be with you,
I fell so far when you left.
Why couldn�t we be so close?
You tried so hard to separate,
even when I held so firm.

A loss of hope; a desire
for what is of wrong heart.
A sense that lies beneath the skin,
yet can never felt.

A hope lies within, to be with you;
a hope of close compassion.
A desire; a longing for company.
In the darkness of doubt,
I cry in my shadow
and hide in my sorrow.

Below my senses,
I find a place;
a place deep within.
A place in my heart,
a place of wicked desire;
a place of secret shame.
