This poem was written sometime during the 1986-1987 school year.
A fleeting glance
A longing look
quickly hidden
no one will ever know
no one should ever know
Hidden feelings
rip and rend in frustration
emotional spasms
tightly kept veiled
Should anyone find out
trap door opens in the heart
as a futile escape from truth
is attempted
But now
the feeling
is gone.
