Forbidden Love Poem by Moore Hope

Forbidden Love

Rating: 4.5


I am confused what more is there to say
I have feelings for someone who cannot love me in that way.

The feelings that I have are hurting me inside
My heart is bleeding slowly from the truth that I do hide.

I want her oh so badly, the warmth of her body next to mine
To wrap my arms around her tight, for the rest of our life time.

But I know that these feelings I have are so very wrong.
The religious background that we share is against this type of love, so strong.
For the love that we do feel is against all of our God's will
And to forsake our God's word is like we are going to kill
We will kill our souls and forth send them to an everlasting doom
Lost souls dancing wildly in the fire, wandering endlessly in loom.

So I dear not tell anyone of the secret that I hold
I hide the truth from everyone for it will never be told.
My mind screams out in anger, why do I have to feel this way
Am I really confused in what I want in life, or am I really gay?

I have never had feelings for someone like this
Is there something in my life I have missed?

I have always had friends that were out and proud to be gay
I supported them, but I have never thought of myself in that way.

But then you came along, and all of my thoughts have changed
It is hard for me to explain but I feel like this is our destiny arranged.
Like we were meant to be together, it is a natural feeling in some way
I always tell you that you are my girlfriend, but then I laugh it away.
Do you think it is really a joke, even though I say it almost every day?
You have to have an inkling for you said you are confused today.

I know that we were talking about someone else somebody we both knew
But I responded in the conversation that that is how life is, and that I myself am confused too.
So did you comprehend the subtle hint to you in which I gave?
Or maybe since you said nothing at all, that was your only save.

I know in my heart that you know the truth about how I feel for you
But I thing that you are denying the fact that perhaps you love me too.
For like I said so many times, the love we would have is wrong.
So we hide the truth from our loving God and in the spirit we stay strong.
