With time, all wounds heal, and lesser the pain we feel
The bleeding heart stops, but not to beat, yet!
We live on;
and we live long after…
Some of us with only the scarred hearts reminding us of the past
Never to forget the memories of you, until the last breath
Only then,
when time is called and the rest of the body gets cold

Only then, may we forget

We were two innocent beautiful souls
Unknowingly destined to fall in love
Fate would not have it
An abomination,
Nature would not have us
Rejected were the wishes of our hearts
Prohibited were the passions within us,
Forbidden like the apple of Eden,
and Our sin denied us a moment in heaven
We are sown from the same fabric. You and i

Standing together arm in arm yet worlds apart

Our minds connected by invincible wire
You dream of I, and I of you
You are a beautiful sight I can never forget
I carry the memory of you on me like a tattoo of a taboo
Ashamed I cover my pride
Your image imprint inside my eyelids,

Yes I do, it’s hard to think
But I see you every time I blink
