Through each pretended kiss I feel your anguish
As you run your fingers through my hair, I feel you clench
We both know this isn’t right
We both know it’s futile to fight
I need this love, I crave this ache
Each emotion I can no longer fake
Send me sweet kisses I know are a lie
I swore I would love you until the day that I die
They whisper poison
They inject hatred and taint my heart
As they try to tear us apart
I can’t turn away, there’s no looking back
I feel your heart race too, ready for their attack
Forbidden love is what they say
But I can’t leave you, I can’t turn you away
Author notes
I chose Forbidden Love because thats what my love always turns out to be. I'm first forgotten.

Heart pervaded by drunkenness flutters,
flooded with wish, tempered by cordiality,
at divine instants of a sigh exaggerates.
Brilliant.

This is a good write
It Describes love on various levels and stages
You are able to portray your emotions to the reader
I liked it a lot
Love as those we can not obtain is a simple part of life
One we must over come
