I am still alive but dead inside
We had love but was forced apart by a power love can not beat
The power which I call society
Ripped us apart
I was raised to follow my heart and fight for it
You, you were raised around loss.
We feel in love and wanted nothing more then to be together
forever.
We sneaked around, lied, and cheated society just to get a glimpse of each other..
but...
When prison was in view for you because of me...
we cursed society and was conquered.
No more speaking, no more seeing, no more you and me
We must wait for 15 months.
I have to be an adult.
My life was destroyed. Conquered by the Storm.
Society riped you out of my life.
I was forced to change jobs, move towns, change phone numbers.
It felt like my life was just given to me
and now it is gone.
And what hurts the most
is knowing that the only person I truly love
is the one person nobody wants me to have.
I can not image my life without you.
I can barely live at all.
I wonder from day to day.
With all thoughts of you.
I will wait forever and a day for you my love.
My heart and Soul are with you..
I still love you.

Touching to the heart. Society does seem to like to bend us all over and stick it where we don't need it.... Curses.... By the way I'm pretty sure it's not illegal as long as you were dating before your partner turned 18. Great write by the way.
