Fair to middlin' of nowhere

My heart is sly
it would keep secrets
from both you and I
Emboldened by attraction
lust, romance and passion
it hides inside
when love arrives
Though love is what it may crave
my sly heart is not so brave
as it may appear
It has seen too much love disappear
My sly heart’s inclination
Is to wait for affirmation
that my lover’s love is true
before my sly heart
knows what to do

Oh the idea of letting it all hang out and then being rejected is a ominous one.

This is absolutely great!

Listening to every heart

Yep, hearts are funny like that. They jump at electrical moments, and we never do know when those will come around...

I think that a heart, being on the sly, will learn much, if it can control its own emotions.

Good job here!
