Forbidden

by Chalsey

There are things that are forbidden The small black box in the darkest corner of my mind is forbidden Things, bad things are in that box It's locked And it must be for good reason There could be a thousand lifetimes my soul has lived in that box Or it could be old memories best forgotten I don't know, and I may never know All I know it that that box is forbidden And I don't have the key I don't know where it is or where to begin to look for it And my feelings tell me that the key is just as forbidden too
