Verboten Love

Two tortured souls in a wayward hell,
As our passion leads us to that place of pure delight.
The secrets we dare not tell,
Dreams tossed down the wishing well,
of forbidden love and secret lies,
Pain inflicted and long lost lies.

A love that burned too deep,
A secret I'm trying to keep,
Your embrace is my safe harbor,
and your presence is my haven.

I tried to hide my beautiful scars that reminds me,
Who I was, who I am and who I'll never be again.
As each morning unfolds of me everyday,
You came and made me forget all this things.

I know that sins are reckoned,
A sin of the deepest dye.
I would turn my back on things supernal,
Gladly would barter my hopes of heaven and all the bliss of eternity.

For never a joy that angels are keeping,
to lay my feet at paradise.
As your strong arms slowly creeping
to lay there for a little while.

To know for a moment you are mine,
I would bear unending tortures sweetly,
with not a murmur and not a moan.
A lighter sin or a lesser error.
No fear and hell has no terror.
He's not mine and i don't think he ever will be...

Our Last Adieu - In Conclusion of Our Dalliant Love

Without warning you came - fortuitous
Baring your corporeal psyche - unclad
Without inhibitions i surrender
Bequeathing my all in your arms.

With clear sagacity - im aware
Conscious of things forbidden
Heedles to detrimental consequences
Carelessly played - determined not to get burned.

Gambled and unafraid - I risk
Clandestinely you took my heart - undisclosed
What we have is a fleeting romance
Born out of elusive yearning but not out of love.

A dalliance i will always recall
To lament is never perceived
You unceasingly exist in the realms of my sanity
Helpless - forbidden, restricted and concealed
I can only mourn on every thoughts of you

I have kissed you one last kiss
And felt your one last touch
Gone and never to return - i acquiese
From here and now - im drifting from our last goodbye.

I Wish It Did

Contemplating and alone - you ran into my mind
It's been quite awhile - I presumed
Or maybe I haven't let the feeling sinked in
Wondering when will this feeling hits in.

We've been through hard times together,
We've hold each other through good times too.
You held me like you'd hold me forever,
But some things can feel wrong even though they're true.

From everything to nothing at all,
From everyday to never at all,
I should be sad; I should be lonely
Or I should feel sorry for myself

BUT...
I don't care if you found somebody new,
I wouldn't get jealous if you're happy too
I won't feel empty when you'll be gone
And my heart won't even miss you.

Didn't it mean anything?
Didn't it matter after all?
And the worst part of it all...
It's the way it doesn't hurt - when i wish it did.
