Forbidden Love

Forbidden my love is for you
Because you have not love for me too
My love for you is strong
Even though you think it is wrong
Live without you I cannot
But I must live with what I wrought
Strong are my feelings for you
I only wish you had feelings for me too
Oh how deeply you have hurt me
And hurt forever I will be
My heart is broken 
Because of what is left unspoken 
Where is the love that was once there
How can you say now that you do not care
You say you want me to stay away
But there is oh so much I need to say
There is not a single word to describe how I feel
Sometimes I wonder if these feelings are real
You make me feel like I have committed some crime
But I can not help but wonder what was it this time
Tears fall like rain from my eyes
But you never notice because I keep them in disguise
What have I done to deserve this
What could have gone so wrongly amiss
What has happened to our relationship
What has happened to our friendship
Where did everything go
Why did it disappear do you know
I am upset very deep down inside
Because I am seeing you from the outside
Who are that you can make me feel this way
Who you are, Oh I can not say
