Dirty little secrets

Just words

                                            Dirty little secrets

I watched the moon rise and the sun run away and I remember ' You and I'. I'm the dancing moon whispering words of love to you as we pass in the night. I was told fire and water cannot be mixed. One shall die.

Love can be sweet, love can be bitter. Can sleeping mind and heart be reborn? Lovers confess on paper things they need and want. Sweet wishes can be turned into dirty little secrets.

A chameleon life are we? Inner wishes becoming lies and wishing well whispers. I know people need face to face. Need to color the empty places with a canvas of long walks, beautiful places and showing real face.

Real face. Few we allow in to see. I wonder what do you dream about? I want to know what makes you smile and laugh? Hard to unlock doors closed tightly. Are we just laying in shallow graves? Waiting?

The midnight confessions to the moon are cutting and honest words. The midnight confessions are bleeding words whispered to the rising sun.

I'm the moon and you are the sun. Like all things. They turn, turn, turn till we give-in or give-up. Are we support to accept less? Would you my warm and kind sun. Love my morning face?  Would I love  your smile and words in the mist of the nightly darkness?

Dirty little secrets can become very heavy and the old wise poet once wrote. Don't be wishy washy. Man-up and live. 

I'm the moon and you are the sun. Please wait for me dear love.

oh my....i feel the sad anguish of this seemingly hopeless love he has ..your prose inspired this thought sir ..that the sun can chase the moon all it wants..can shine great light upon her ..but she is a forever cold little orb ..never to bloom :(((( i want your hero to break out...fly into vast space and find that planet that she really does live on ;)
we dream dreams and do make them come true ..but when those dreams turn to fantasies and imaginings ..that dream withers and withers our souls as well ;( lots of "stuff" in this one for me sir!

Her light is shining on you, and your shadow is extending further and further. Many dirty little secrets thrown into wishing wells of secrecy. Then the confessions after the facts of life gone the way of two lovers. Amazing, sir.

Love her voice and this song
I like your pairing
I have been told that the poet is very much like a songwriter by a young singer,
and your words work here with this.

This is an unusual approach for you! Usually you write very solid straightforward storylines, but this one feels more like meandering mind flutters (in a very good way!) I'm struck by two things especially: "I was told fire and water cannot be mixed. One shall die." -- this is so thought-provoking in terms of how different kinds of people mix or do not mix . . . and: " I know people need face to face. Need to color the empty places with a canvas of long walks, beautiful places and showing real face." -- I agree, it can be lonely when our only interactions are online, a loneliness many young people suffer & you've expressed the answer, in my estimation. Overall, your message gives us so much to ponder! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
