Forbidden Passions

It's true when they say, "The harder you push, The more you want to." I have to live with this everyday; I've tried to hide that I want you, But you can see right through. I've been denying you my body, But I want you to have it -- completely. I've been denying myself The pleasures your heartbeat promises. We simply can't do this, Think of the people we'll be hurting. We have to pull away from each other harder, Before it costs us everything. Don't touch me, don't even look at me, Don't tell me how you feel about me. I can't take the pain of me wanting... You expect me to take the pain of you watching? Why did you have to exist? Why did we ever even meet? What did I do to life for it to punish me? The agony... The agony... I could die just to make the agony go away. I am in great envy, Of her, The one you promised "love", But I know you have to stay away. Have me; no, don't... I'm getting killed by these thoughts. "Let me in; no, don't..." It's hard, but I pr... I promise I won't. I can't say it's a promise I'll keep, It's a promise that needs to be.
