A Secret

Heat climbs up my neck to my ears.
Are my eyes smoldering?
Does smoke escape my lips?
I'm drowning in each glance we pretend not to share.
In the lies I tell with the turn of my head.
In my coded words.
In my omitted truths.
In knowing the exact shade of your eyes.
I return to the memory of each, justified.
I want to have a secret.
And that secret is you.
