As my heart slowly picks up on every beat, and my breaths become more shallow, and short. I can't help but stare at your beautiful flowing hair, or the way your eyes twinkle between your glasses, every waking moment you are in my presence I am overcome with happiness just by looking at you, but also overcome by jealousy because you are not mine. Not mine to hold, not mine to touch, and not mine to kiss. As every waking moment I am happy to be near you, i am also saddened because our love can never be.
A love like ours can never be, for other people can never understand my attraction to you. If others are to find out they will mock, jeer, and bully to no end. I shall never forgive myself if you live a life of pain because you have chosen to be with me. So I shall suppress my feelings for you no matter how much it shall hurt my heart. Because no girl may like another girl, and no boy may like another boy because the world deems it a sin, and a disgusting act of the devil. I shall always love you in secret for the rest of my days if it means that you get to live happily.
