Secret Love Poem by Sandra Feldman

I have looked for you Forever,
Now I found you much too late,
And the sound of 'Never, Never',
Seems to always seal my fate.

I had dreamt of you so often,
Love complete and full of grace,
I had loved you as a Secret,
Never having seen your face.

The Ideal we fall in love with,
Is sometimes a desperate case,
Not responding, corresponding,
To our mental, warm embrace.

Yet, I'll not betray you ever,
And this Love will stay in place,
Even though I know that Never,
You will be mine to embrace.
