(re Post) Forsaken
it's forbidden for me to love
yet thoughts light on me like a dove
with hell fire beaconing me to fly away
yet my soul welcomes sweet ideals to stay
don't go away; stay
in my arms
sway to songs
written so long ago
but ancient ears listen
and spread rumors to eyes that glisten
how hungry are those that wait
who's hearts become filled with hate
and malice intended for the sake of hate
that causes worlds to shake
and feet to slip into fiery lake
dragged down by those forsaken
those from whom love was taken
they open our mouths and feed us hate
the sweetness of love has left
the bitterest taste
true repentance reveals our mistake
safety of life and sanity at stake
from whom love may requires
our life take
