i don’t know why happiness is so elusive
it comes in moments
fleeting, yet tinged with sadness
one minute we are smiling and laughing
the next i see a small sign
a flicker of hidden thoughts and feelings
when did i become your dark little secret
the person that you enjoy in private
the hidden friend that you laugh and joke with
you deny me to others around you
they have your heart
i have your body and your secrets
i take this time to stir my iced tea
become imbibed in sadness
the sugar never melts at the bottom of the glass….
