Her life is built on secrets.

She knows it.

He knows it.

They can never have a truly open relationship in which there are no lies. They can only have a life of half truths.

Always will there be something that she cannot tell him or something she will not want to tell him.

There will always be something that he too will keep from revealing to her. She has never been able to read him clearly as she can do for others. But she’ll know. They’ll both know.

They, for eternity, will be separated by their personal lives and thoughts and the secrets they bring.

Then again, what couple didn’t have that problem?
