I reach out,
but can't feel his skin.
I know he's there, I can see him.
But im being held back,
by some crazy force.
And I can't seem to touch him.
No matter how hard I try.
She's staring again.
Doesn't she know they're watching.
Doesn't she relize it will never happen,
me and her.
We just arn't mant to be.
He looks like he's giving up,
so, I scream.
"Please, no." I scream.
But I know he can't hear.
"I need you."
She can't need me.
Our love is forrbidden.
I do love her,
but we are trapped.
We can't be together.
I look closely,
leaning in to see.
He doesnt look to happy,
in fact, he looks angry.
Why won't she stop,
can't she just see.
I need to be alone.
We arn't meant to be.
I won't stop.
She needs to stop.
He can't give up.
I'm giving up.
It's not over.
It's forbidden,
It's over.

I loved how you went from his opinion and then back to hers! It really made the poem feel more personal, which always makes for a good read! You brought the characters to life! Great Job! Thanks for you entry and good luck!
