Consumed

As I Lust onto a forbidden one I fall. But by a heart already owned, My hope is abandoned; I am undone; A desire provoked by all the unknown. A heart of rebel depth to tame, but my wild words reflect not my soul in pain, I crave to taste each part of his name over and over till I lose control. What disparity my swindled heart weeps of what may have been, how it should have gone; My heart and soul lie broken by defeat. Agony, such agony is set upon Scorched by a fire that I could not touch. Consumed by a flame that was just too much.

Nicely written poem of forbidden love, Elizabeth, I can feel the frustration. I posted a similar poem yesterday. John
