forbidden love
is among the worst tragedies
in the universe
you love a person
with every bone
every ligament
every fiber of your being
but you cannot have them
you try your hardest
to make things work
but to no avail
and god
do you long for that one person
more than anything
you constantly think of them
and the way
their arms felt around you
you become so low
that you have no clue
how to be happy again
and you would do anything
to be with them
but you can't
and it haunts you
and tears at your heart
and tatters your very soul
because once
you couldn't imagine a life
without them
