Forbidden Love

Forbidden love is the worst type of love you would ever feel.
The knowledge that these feelings you express can never come out.
For if they do
a mountain of hatred, judgement and rejection
will crash upon you.
From your family, your friends, the one you shamefully lust about.
The one where you'd go out with in a heart beat no doubt.
And you wish that these vivid scenarios
your mind creates can one day become reality
but you accept your fate that it could never occur.

For your love is forbidden.
It is wrong to love him or her.
And you understand that this isn't Romeo and Juliet
where we sacrifice our lives for a silly little crush.
We just gaze upon their beauty and feel ourselves blush.

Sometimes love being forbidden is better.
As they can sit there
blissfully unaware
that you would do anything to just be with them.

And I find its much better to share a glance
and a smile and maybe even talk once or twice.
And pretend to yourself that they were talking to you
for another reason other than being nice.
