Why Does Loving You Feel So Wrong

The way my heart aches in your absence And yet, the weight of your presence feels heavy I trace the lines of our tangled history Each twist and turn a knot in my soul Why does loving you feel like a tangled mess A web of emotions I cannot untangle I yearn for the simplicity of love The kind that flows effortlessly like a river But with you, it is a tumultuous sea Each wave crashing against my fragile heart Perhaps it is the forbidden nature of our love That makes it feel so wrong Or maybe it is the uncertainty The doubt that lingers in the shadows But still, I cannot deny the pull The magnetic force that draws me to you Even as I question the validity of my feelings I cannot help but love you, despite it all So I sit here, in the darkness of the night Wondering why loving you feels so wrong And yet, unable to resist the pull Of the love that consumes me whole
