My secret love

Just words

                         Secret love

Once brave man is quiet now. Bloody life led him to lonely place and the Monterey bay. He called a old phone number and he listened.

A sweet voice whispered. I am not home. If important, please leave a message and I promise to call you back. He hung-up the phone and he whispered to the Pacific.  I love to hear your voice, your whispering of kind words, poetry for me, my love.

 And I wish.

You were near. I need your soft hands caressing my hair and my face. I want you to straddle me,  face to face.  I want you to kiss me a million times. I want you to sing to me till the morning sunrise and I need to hear your voice. 

Sometime we need secrets and some mystery of wishes. Oh, what we could have been. He  invited her to California, he invited her to Texas. In Georgia, he called her at 4 am and she told him. Rambling and traveling man. I am waiting for you in Michigan. When you settle down, please call me. Please come home soon. Anne is very lonely.

He had learn he cannot have everything. The Hemingway life led him to lonely pier and a secret love, 2500 miles away. Kind woman with pretty words to share. His salvation,  is myth and tale now.

He drink the beer slowly, watched the sea and he told the stars and the moon: I love you my secret love, more than you shall know. You will be my final wish.

I see and feel the beautiful and sad painting your words make in this poem Coyote. All in tones of blue. The sea and sky hear what you cannot say, what you write of your love and longing. I hope your secret love finds your words on the wind. Hauntingly mesmerizing write.

Oh how beautiful- I pray that this final wish comes true for you- maybe it’s written in the stars and some things that are meant to be will always find a way of coming to be- 🌹

[Coyote Poetry]

Dear Kelly. Final wishes are just myth and tale. Things gone are lost. Thank you for reading and the comment.

[‘Thoughts In Time’🌹]

Nothing is ever lost until it’s the end- never know what’s ahead not even angels know🌹

Mysteries beyond the realities and the whisper of the imagination. I think the secret love is what keeps our heart's tender in so many ways. But also stretches our emotions, daily along the way.

There is a secret love I have. One that will always continue to whisper. We both were fourteen. She is gone now. May she rest in peace. A red rose and her picture whispers a memory. But her whisper lives on forever.

[Coyote Poetry]

We cannot forget the people who taught us love. Thank you Arthur for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

the secret love will always be something that lingers, there is something so special in someone who doesn't know or unaware of what you are feeling.. this is one romantic tale to tell all over again

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right my friend. Things not done. They will break our heart more than the attempted deeds. Thank you for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

[Ally Monique]

Simply put, I love this. A lot of feeling in these lines... I guess this just speaks to me. The moon and the stars are great listeners.

[Coyote Poetry]

You are right Ally. Moon and the stars always listen. Thank you for reading. I do appreciate.

love ernest...love this piece...

reminds me of my secret love...situations and timing never brought us together enough that we could be in an actual relationship...but there have been moments over the years and a certain closeness that is almost impossible to explain...
almost. Except you have presented it here.
