The Chameleon

She had a secret. It belonged to him and her. She hid it in the chambers of her heart, cherishing it, savoring it, smiling at its beauty.

She could keep a secret. She smiled when crossing the road. She smiled working at her desk. She dreamt of future days and nights…allowing the secret to grow.

She lived in the grey realm, flying under the radar.

She was a chameleon hanging on the edge of life. Only those with keen eyes saw her. This was how she liked to live.

This was how she kept their secret, secret.
