Safe Secret

© Maria Kingsbury

A hidden secret
That's not to be found
A secret so special
It'll go to the ground
Revealed to the dark
Where no one will see
A little bit added
To please only me
When there's people around
It's hidden away
Safe under the fabric
Is where it will stay
Physical evidence
To prove it is there
But mental addiction
Is harder to bear
It's a nightly chore
But a pleasurable one
All day is spent waiting
With no rest 'till it's done
