Forbidden Heartbeats

Forbidden love, it chokes and cheats still Death
As it encircles beating hearts today
A power stronger than man’s final breath
Is this love that will never go away

We close our eyes and dream a different love
One that our Mum will give forever praise
The world is spinning such a gentle shove
And blinding us with sights of calmer days

We hate to give the dream a second look
But hands that welcome are so soft and dear
Forgiving us now for the path we took
Can we be fooled when our love is not near?

We glance back quickly through the half-shut door
Tears flood our souls, but there is nothing more.
