He was Mr. Popular, I, Miss Bookworm.


I still am, and he still is.


Yet, something shifted.


They say opposites attract.


They used to.

He adjusts a second, as if just now realizing I was attempting to ...

He doesn't know that I know, but I do...


That's what happens when you leave a trail in the world. Someone eventually picks up on it, and runs with it. The action of keeping a secret is tiring, so it's not surprising that he leaves breadcrumbs everywhere. The "secret" isn't anything out of the ordinary, but I guess in these times secrets always have a valid reason for being kept. Who am I to quest...

Shared Secret

I couldn’t help myself. Riley never told me any secrets. We’ve been best friends for years, yet she remains so secretive. I had to get a better glimpse into her life.

Sweet Nothings

Listen

Hear

I whisper sweet nothings

You nod as if you understand

This foreign language

Called love


I speak through my soul

You hear with your heart

Your smile never fades

As I give you everything


I realize now

I was vulnerable

If you had turned away

I would have broken

My true self was in the open

And you lean in and whisper back sweet nothings

Our foreign language

Called love...
