Forbidden Love

Forbidden love, nothing's allowed
Senses are shut, feelings are barred
Sacrifying is sin, giving is crime
Never come near not even try,

Hurting, burning, making you cry
Avoid it leave it behind
Don't say the words
Not to yourself, nor aloud,

Putting you aside, with what DO I start?
my heart or my mind?
Trying to but I can't
Because you're with me day and night,

GOD give me strength, give me time
to stop what's considered not right
For I never knew that love
could be forbidden for some hearts.
