About Someone

Hidden Truth

In the shadows of your gaze,
Lies a secret that does amaze.
Each word you spoke, each silence shared,
Turned my heart to a place bared.
Your secrecy, a haunting light,
Turned my brightness into night.
With every silence, every sigh,
You made my trust in you die.
Your mystery, a cold wave,
In your distance, I am brave.
In your absence, I found my voice,
Learning to make my own choice.
Forever growing, forever true,
In your shadow, life renews.
