The crime of love

The truth of love is that it’s crime,
Illegal,
Bad,
Taboo,
People who commit this sin are evil,
Yes it’s true .
Confession can appease the soul,
But the lies come shining through,
Your heart is locked eternally,
In a small cell made for two .
You can’t break free,
You can’t escape,
No matter how you try,
The sentence is so long and hard,
Make that life times 5 .
If you try to get away,
It will all rush back to you,
You cannot lose the thin blue lines,
That travel two by two .
The lines just close around your neck,
Back to the lonely cell,
Your left alone with just your thoughts,
Your life’s a living hell .
Some loves are only minor,
A stupid crush or fling,
In court these crimes,
Will bear small charge,
A lonely monthly thing,
But when the love is purist,
Good,
And right,
And true,
The charge is hard upon your head,
There’s no where to run to .
What’s this I hear you asking,
How’d you bloody know ?
The answer is quite simpleton,
It’s plain,
And I will tell,
My punishment is hard and long,
With my whole life to serve,
Cannot you,
Find the agony,
I have because of love ?

Clever -- glad you can see the humor
in these things.  This flows great and
I enjoyed the analogy of love.
