The forbidden love

Maybe I was destined to forever fall for people I couldn't have. Maybe there's a whole assortment of impossible people waiting for me to find them. Waiting to make me feel the same impossibility over and over again.

All I want is to stop having to keep this a secret. I want to be able to hold your hands and tell our friends about the date we went on last night. I want to stop hiding, stop worrying what will happen if someone finds out. I want to stop wondering if maybe I'm not worth it to you.

She told me "you can't control who you fall in love with" and I didn't understand until I found myself thinking of holding your hand when I should've been watching the movie.

It was terrifying to love someone who was forbidden to you. Terrifying to feel something you could never speak of, something that was horrible to almost everyone you knew, something that could destroy your life.
