The Specter of my heart

"Can you keep a secret", our conversation was going so well, "Yeah sure, go ahead", "Lois I don't like that word "Sure". Isaiah was peculiar, always telling me what he did not like, I guess that is a good thing. He is tall, his eyes are enchanting, because it holds every meaning to his words. His skin is Golden , his dark long curls are always hopping about, his hands are soft, inviting, I always want to hold them. "Ok , yes I can keep a secret", he smiled, his smile was so softening, it made me feel warm inside. " Can we enjoy each other's company , keep us , between us?", I am shaken, my mind is blank, my thoughts are gone. I want to be honest, tell him that I do not want to hide us. I stare at the grass dancing to the tune of the wind, my mind, wandering. He breaks the silence " You know I cherish every moment with you, I am undeniably lucky to have you , I am, I just want to protect what we have", he had a way with words, I am content, I answer "Yes". He holds my hand and tickles my palm as we stare at the gentleness of nature.
