Forbidden

by Sam Harty

I want someone I cannot have.

same story, different tale.

time spent with her, I'm elated

time apart, a bitter hell.

I want someone I cannot have.

her beauty takes my breath away

but she belongs to someone else

it be unconscionable to stay.

I want someone I cannot have.

so I try to turn and go

but every fiber of my being

just screams, "NO".

I want someone I cannot have.

this will kill me in the end

so I'll try to flip the script

and make her just a friend.
