Forbidden Love Poem by Carol Tepana

Forbidden Love

Rating: 5.0


Forbidden love is someone you see and feel deep inside
You are connected but don't know why?
You feel what they feel, you hear what they hear, you see what they see, you know what they know.
Suddenly your whole body comes alive, you feel your heart pumping faster and faster, breathing becomes difficult at times.
But you know that they are miles away from you,
Both coming out from their comfort zone meeting in a secret place.
That no one knows only yous do as it shall remain this way
You know what they are going to say even before they say it,
It is a  fruit that you should not touch but you want to taste.
It is a song that you want to sing but can not open your mouth to sing it.
It is a person you had seen but must not be seen with,
It is a word that you do not say or allow it to utter form your lips
It is a feeling that you can not describe or even explain.
What is this? What is happening to me? Can anyone tell me?
For I know what I have done but do not care for he is the one
Who has my soul and heart as I have his but we have others who we care and are close to us.
What shall we do?  
Do we climb to a top of a mountain to scream out what we feel.
No we don't do this instead we only mail one an other.
This is what we do as we keep mailing each other,
the yearning for each other grows stronger and stronger
Deeper and deeper as it brings us alive.
We both realize this is  forbidden love but choose not to let go
It brings us alive and we find ourselves living life.
Walking into the unknown where forbidden love is......where you may ask? ... but know one knows where it is only those who have been down this road.......

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

'Love is the intervening space between life and death And we use the yardstick of one life span to measure it And go through a mesquerade of living But love has no life span It prevails from an unknown beginning To an unknown end At whatever point in time we find it We fix our separate limits And then define it with names and relationships' Naseer
