My love is forbidden

And yet I don’t care

These pointless rules

Are just unfair

You say that you hate me

And I know that you’re right

But I can’t get your face

Out of my head at night

I stare and I wonder

I think about you

I know that it’s wrong

But there’s naught I can do

I see you and wish

That you’d hate me no more

For your hate only hurts

My heart, it is sore

I wish that you’d change

Like I know that you could

But I think of my friends

And don’t think you should

For even if you forgave

Me for being who I am

They wouldn’t believe you

They’d call it a sham

They’d say that you’re acting

Out to cause me more pain

But with the way that I feel now

I can only gain
