Their eyes connect from across the room But quickly they look away The love was forbidden She felt his presence near her She wanted to reach for his hand but did not Because the love was forbidden Her smile warmed his heart Her laughter was his sweet melody He longed to reach for her But the love was forbidden They were so close Yet so far away From happiness, from completeness Yet the love was forbidden Just for a moment she wanted to break the laws And fall into him Was such a thing wrong? Why was the love forbidden? The longing never stopped But still he went to another The love would always be forbidden And with a heavy heart She did the same Before the forbidden love turned bitter |

J.K, you pen the ideas of forbidden love very well. Write on Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

This is an incredible poem. I don't think I've read you before, I really enjoy your style of writing. At this moment I am working on a poem, which begins very much the same. Yet ends exactly opposite. And that made me like this all the more. They could almost be mismatched bookends. |

this was well written about forbidden love! I don't think anyone should forbid two lovers to be together, it just might make them rebellious! Like Romeo and Juliet |
