Write, he said, I did
Again and again
Why?
What intrigues me?
How can his words so enamour me?
Weeks have past
My fear escalates
I know I must act
I cannot let this go on.
I reflect on my situation
I am but a fool to think
He would/might/possibly
Love me, like me,
Not when he learns my secret.
No deceit as nothing is promised
Save a few words across a vast distance.
But I cannot lead him to think otherwise
My heart has been awoken,
Why do I crave this man?
Its forbidden love I know
I didn’t ask for this, I didn’t see it coming
But my heart is his, I can feel and know it is.
I must end this for he will be devastated
Should I continue in this farce.
‘My story,’ I said. ‘You must read my story.’
Then decide to…I cannot say leave me
I cannot say end all this…but its reality.
I await his reply, if any that is
His silence may be message enough.
I am rigid, wretched, fearing the worst,
My revelation too much?
I have to accept his response.
I watch my screen, minutes pass
It seems an eternity, my mind races
Doubts, fears, reality, acceptance?
I wish!
I hear a cough from the other room,
My guilt heightens, what am I doing?
My screen blinks, his name pops up
I swallow, draw in breath, hesitate,
Open his reply, my eyes agape
My world changes there and then.
