F o r b i d d e n ⚠

I gave my HEART away right there,

where loving you was forbidden.

I spent a LIFETIME standing still,

where even a moment was forbidden.

I kept returning to that SAME lonely street,

where showing up each day was forbidden.

I set my soul on FIRE with your name,

where even lighting a single lamp was forbidden.

I held on to the MEMORY of your face,

where remembering you was forbidden.

I stood TRAIL for loving too deeply,

where questioning you was forbidden.

I BROKE quietly, piece by piece, for you,

where breaking at all was forbidden.

I let my hands LINGER on empty spaces,

where touching the air you once filled was forbidden.

I traced YOUR absence in the corners of my mind,

where remembering the emptiness was forbidden.

I carried the WEIGHT of shattered dreams,

where piecing them together was forbidden.

I burned LETTERS I could never send,

where keeping them safe was forbidden.

I watched the embers of hope DIE alone,

where saving even a spark was forbidden.

I traced your SHADOW on cracked walls,

where chasing it was forbidden.

I let my TEARS fall on broken glass,

where mourning in full was forbidden.

I gave my heart away right there again,

where loving you was always forbidden.
