Secrets to the Public

By Peter Scott

He doesn't know it
She misses
A cue
All the emotion
Locked up inside
Never since obsession
Has pain come from waiting
Immense, intolerable
Yet silence so sweet
Answering his own questions:
Why
How
When
Is bearing a crush with
A startling revelation
Given light by the only god
Neglected though she is
Childlike
Apparent only now
A goddess of a different trade
Working magic
Not hindered by science

Secretly he moved
His actions felt only by she
Her alone
Common sense screams
Yet is deaf to its own voice
Silence
Passionately feelings reel
Revealing it all
Giving none
Molds crack
Sweat over skin
The most constant reminder
Farewell my concubine!
One person
Breaking all the
Rules
Needed to be kept
Warm
Only one fragment shall understand
Pieces of ignorant knowledge
A lover
Two seeds
The tree and the shadow that planted them.
