Our Secret

Under the glow of the pale moonlight,
Enemies by day, lovers by night.
Hidden away, out of sight,
But only until the sky becomes bright.
Time is precious, time is short,
Sat here in our homemade fort.
Our hands touching, for a touch cannot lie,
Gazing up at the star-filled sky.
How can love be wrong, when it feels so right?
Our love can last forever, but for this we must fight.
As a faint glow appears over the horizon,
The pink-red light of the early morning sun.
A kiss goodbye, but not for the last time,
For I know that later tonight, this precious joy will again be mine.
