She leaves the room
We're alone
He turns to me
I try not to look back

His warm gaze calls to me like a siren's song
I start to move closer
We embrace
Lips together, tongues intertwined

The sound of foot steps closen
We break apart
One last glance
For now

She smiles at us
Kisses his cheek
She leans against his side
Seconds earlier I did the same

She never suspects
We never want it to end
Maybe this will end soon
Maybe him and me can just be

A triangle
Love in all directions
Betrayal covered up
Secrets that I hope are never told
