Sometimes It Gets To You

Sometimes love is finest when it’s non-existent,
But the finer the knife, the higher risk of being jabbed with emotions.

Sometimes love is best when it’s forbidden or secret,
But the longer it is hidden, the more guilty you feel for being so smitten.

Sometimes love is at its greatest when tested,
But the deeper the love is, the more painful it will be without them.
