The Clam and the book

Read this poem on one of the bloggers page, liked it well enough to post it over here. 

He was a clam

Not open all closed

She an open book

He opened when he chose.

He thought he knew her

He had read the pages all

But she remained a riddle

He never could solve.

He hid himself well

Never bared his soul

Yet she knew him like herself

May be more, who really knows…

Their love flourished

Unlikely as it seemed

Different as chalk and cheese

In spirit they were peas in a pod

A love story whose end

I am too scared to explore

So my verse ends right here

With a ‘happily ever after’
