Forbidden Love Poem by James Casey

Forbidden Love

I found you spirited and carefree
When I was with you I was happy.
We had good times with so much fun
I grew to feel you were the one.

You filled my deepest fantasy
For life was just you and just me.
I prayed to my God high up above
Let me obtain the woman that I love.

You were so much more than a friend
I wanted our together to never end.
For you I was willing to wait
Our future as one would be great.

I held hope in my happy heart
But my cold feet kept us far apart.
Something was very much amiss
I could not give you just one kiss.

Held back by doubt I could not touch.
I loved you, I loved you much too much.
