160 characters of art (IV): Secret crush taken seriously

Here is another idea for a piece of art, again given away for free to anybody arty out there, to perform it and get famous with. Again, it proofs to be a great idea as it fits into one text message. This one would even qualify as a twitter message (>140 characters).

It is without doubt the most daring artwork I have ever heard of. As any great piece of art is blurs the borders between art and life, reality and imagery, privat life and business, yes, even between life and death. It is the best artwork in the world. All specifications given are to be followed precicely and without room for interpretation:

LOVE SOMEBODY INSANELY, SECRETLY, AND UN-RECIPROCALLY. NEVER LET IT SHOW, NEVER TELL ANYBODY UNTIL YOU DIE, BUT DON’T LET GO EITHER.

(134 characters)

Of course, if you succeed with this artwork, we will never know and it is nothing to get rich with during lifetime. At best we learn of it after your death, in case you kindly leave a note or some documentation on it for posthumous discovery. Good luck.

Make sure to check out all other 160 characters of art suggestions available so far. 160 CHARACTERS OF ART, an initiative of walloftime.net.
