My love for you consumes me,
eating little pieces of my soul;
I feel it burn and fester
when I'd rather watch it grow.
I long for so much more than this,
but life and pain get in our way.
I crave to kiss your sweet lips,
but alas i can't - not today.
This love of ours is not allowed-
it isn't written in the books;
I'd like to pencil it in somewhere,
latch on to it with loving hooks.
But alas, as fate would have it,
some things aren't always meant to be;
I'll tuck away these feelings
as little scars inside of me.
Reminders of what could have been
had our love been allowed;
and in my heart of hearts
I'll feel this love and own it proud.
