Out in the World

Our secret touch is visible for all to see.

The team thinks we are saying good job as we pass, just like we do when they pass.

However; every time our hands meet, my heart skips a beat and a smile starts to appear on my face.

You and I have our own little code as we play the game. The slightest of nods that only I recognize, the touch of an ear that is our secret I Love You.

Always sitting together when we travel. We play it cool in front of others, but in our private world nothing comes between us.

That’s why we room together, but I’m always complaining about how loud you snore so no one ever decides to room with you.

Our secret will be ours and only ours, until we are both ready to be out in the world.
