We Share a Happy Secret


We share a happy secret/ An intense friendship/ A certain sense of understanding that goes unspoken/ No one can tell by looking or even talking to us/ It is a secret and magic power/ It makes us strong and keeps us free/ With the knowledge I gain from this secret.../ ... The modern world emerges.

I'd like to say the secret lasts forever/ And yes, the secret is love/ It exists, strong, intense, and good/ It exhales, it liberates/ It doesn't necessarily constrain or cause pain/ But can, and eventually does, unfortunately.

I used to think that true love lasts forever/ I suppose certain loves can/ But I have loved people with intensity and intimacy, trust and understanding/ Only to look at them blankly and emotionlessly/ The secret was wiped away as if it was never there.

We share a happy secret right now, but beware/ Because the modern world emerges everyday.


- Ron Rege Jr.
