Forbidden

FORBIDDEN
In thinking back into back then,
too many things won't fit,
the questions I once had are more
like they'll hang on a bit;

for love to even come along
to scarcely be a thought,
at this, the time I was secure
then suddenly, was not.

How could I fall so very hard
something I've never done,
when easy going is my style
take life as lots of fun?

I've heard of these things happening,
but not to me, no way!
I was the rock depended on
and lived it every day.

Then everything was new to me,
the old so quick died out,
and this old dog was changed into
things never thought about.

And if I broke the social norm,
it was because of this,
that part of me that didn't die
was what I'd never miss;

to put up front, and let it out,
in all my honesty,
to show exactly how I feel,
the me that's really me.

I showed you then in any way
and won't regret a thing,
my only hope is that some day
your thought of me might bring

some comfort to a troubled time
you might be going through;
remembering you have been loved
the way I have loved you.
