My Secret Love
 
We sit at our table at lunch.
Nobody would be caught dead near us.
It always bothered me though I tried to act like it didn't, but you?
You're like a super hero without a cape.
You're like a warrior without a sword.
Fighting off all my fears so swiftly, you make it look easy.
Many wouldn't be able to do what you do.
I'm one of them.
I look at you while all the noise of the lunchroom surround us with distractions.
Others just see a dull face in the crowd, but what do I see?
I see my hero, my warrior, no. I see my secret love.
