I have learnt to love in darkness
Behind closed windows and doors
In dark corners and alleys
Places where no one dare goes

When the curtains are drawn 
And closet doors are closed
I know it is my time to love

I have learnt to love in darkness
Stifling moments of pleasure 
Stealing silent kisses 
Whispering how much I love her 

I must love in silence
Never should my love for her be louder than their hatred of me 
Hatred of the way I love her 
The way I love her in darkness
