Forbidden Love Poem by Zena Blank

We are in love
us two
a chance spark that grew
I am so glad it did
I had a chance to really learn you
to feel us becoming closer
we are closer now then ever
now they want to tear us apart
separate us back into our worlds
worlds millions of miles apart
where I can never see you
you can't see me
our hearts will yearn
for the others beat
to feel complete

I can see you
being dragged out the door
chains and ropes bound around every limb
you're fighting the pull with your all
your every last dropp of energy being expended
the pain means nothing
you fight
I return the favour
yanking and pounding against my shackles
they are so tightly bound to the wall
the cuts on my wrists and ankles run deep and raw
I fight

Our gazes never leave each others
a silent exchange of love and passion
all that we wanted to say but never could
we have to fight, even if it kills us
I can't watch you give up
I can't give up watching you fight
lets stand and fight
together.
