Forbidden Love

Torrents of tears engulf my heart

Falling from eyes that weep tears

Tangled are the webs we weave

When times are hard to conceive

How this aching heart doth grieve

For it cries out its painful whimper





Softly tears in rippling rainfalls tumble

Slowly flowing in unending streams

Painful is the anguished soul of mine

Reaching to a love that’s out of reach

Trembling is my suffering lonely heart

As it harkens for it’s soul mate's plea



Streaming tears for a forbidden love

An empty heart within empty arms

My body’s unending ache of desire

Fills  me with an everlasting yearning

Bathed in thoughts of eternal dreams

I find myself longing for your love

A beautiful, although sad, poem, written with an incredible flow, and with a rare depth of honest emotion......Your words drip like honey, yet are also hard to swallow due to the pain expressed.... To me, NO love is forbidden, for love is the only true value of consequence, and nothing should be placed as more important!!! I hope you realize your desires with your soulmate, if this be your true Soulmate, for each only has one true, destined Soulmate, and to let anything stand in the way of such a love is the definiton of "insanity" itself!!! Wonderful writing!!

A single word : Wow !! A really really moving poem. It is not rhymed but the music of it is very very well balanced, a scream, a cry...wow. Keep going on ! Love. Vincent.
