I had the idea
Of an entirely secretive relationship
Two people, who each told no one
Except the other
Of their plentiful
Wonderfully ingenious collaborations
Why would I make the call
Is it only to hear her voice
Why tell anyone, it is my choice
Raise you off your feet
Private and secret
Each & every time we meet
Praise of those perfect ways
As in a silent partnership retreat
Spent in the love, of the overtly indiscrete
Tell of the bonds
The absent ties not to cheat
Private and secret, sublime in the beat
Hope of a response
With an agreement to meet, with
All regrets wrapped, in a virgin cotton sheet
