dirty little secret








She had me in the palm of her hand.


I had toyed with the idea.
Maybe not an idea,
but delusion.

Maybe not delusion,
but the possibility.


Positivity feeds possibilities.

An old mantra,

from days long gone.

A million others
racing through my head.

She and I
fit naturally.
There could have been
countless reasons
why we shouldn't have.

I didn't care,

so long as she was with me.


Not gonna lie,

I was scared.

I wasn't used to it.
The thrill of something forbidden.

From the moment

we first spoke about it,

I was her dirty little secret.

Three hour train ride.

Two mintues past 9.

One thought on my mind,

and she invaded me.

My life.
My heart.

My innermost desires.


She had me in the palm of her hand.


Her soft skin
pressed up against mine.

My fingers lost

in her long dark hair.

Her soft lips
exploring

up and down my body.

It was so wrong,

no wonder it was a secret.

No wonder I was her secret.


Days. Weeks. Months.

She made the trip
like clockwork.
Three hour train ride.

Two minutes past 9.

One thought on my mind.

I was her dirty little secret.


Secret's out bitch.

he was cute until...















Let's face it.


It's a world ruled by preconception.

Fame and fortune,
clout and possessions.
The rich and powerful,
the vain and beautiful.

I could go on for days.
The adjectives never ending,
but who the fuck
would want to do that?

It's no big secret,
my disdain for society.
The yearn for prominence
and social standing.

A man judged
solely
on his appearance
and credentials.
For women,
no different.

I can only imagine
a time and place,
where good men
and good women
appreciated each other
for the right reasons.

I'd like to think
that some people
take notice.
Take notice
of what really matters.
I can only think,
I can only hope.

Until then,
I guess
she'll find him cute...
until he pulls out his 'old flip phone'.
