Best Forbidden Love Poems
Is it possible that an angel and a demon could fall in love?
And, remain soul mates for all eternity?
Yes, and I will tell you how it happened.
Maybe, it was a miracle that they met
or maybe it was just meant to be.
That an angel fell out of heaven and a demon escaped from hell
on the very same day.
They saw no one, but each other.
Yet, neither had ever seen such a creature.
The angel was beautiful and kind.
This angel had fallen from heaven
a place of light and life, and of hope and peace.
The demon was imperfect and shy.
This demon had escaped from hell
a place of darkness and death, and of despair and pain.
When they met, their eyes met.
And without a spoken word.
The angel saw only tenderness and hurt in this lost demon.
The demon saw only compassion and love in this lost angel.
It did not matter to them if one had wings, and the other had horns.
Yet, they saw themselves within each other.
Even though they were from two different worlds.
They embraced each other.
Though, they knew their love was forbidden by others like themselves.
So, they decided to remain here on earth.
Where their bond could not be broken.
The heart of the angel was no longer filled with loneliness and longing.
The heart of the demon was no longer filled with torment and sorrow.
Love is what they both were searching for.
And it was found on that very same day.
A forbidden love, everlasting for all eternity.
she sat beside the window looking out
a world now blurred by burden of her tears
by sorrow sated, yet she had no doubt
that morn would bring to life her secret fears
upon her lap lay all his letters bound
the multitude of dreams that he had shared
his picture slipped from fingers to the ground
along with all the hopes that he had bared
she pressed to heaving chest the latest one
in which he pledged his love undying true
He hoped with rose her heart he'd finally won
it was a symbol of his passion's hue
all this she pondered as she sat and sighed
for love forbidden had to be denied

Have you forgotten Eleanor Rigby?
Then step up, meet me now, for I am she.
How many weddings have I attended
where it seems a war has been suspended?
For but a few moments, these happy pairs
enjoy their lives as if they have no cares.
I picked up the rice at each wedding,
asking myself why I was attending.
Perhaps just to see our priest once more
Father McKenzie, whom I adored.
There’s no doubt that my passion was true
and that he, surely, must love me too.
So bury me now along with my name
in the cemetery’s corner of shame.
Resting in shadows, our graves can be found
with just two small headstones marking the ground.
Are you one of the lonely like us?
Do you sit alone with no mates to discuss
the remains of the day, two lives not shared?
For the good priest and I never dared
to open our hearts to both joy and pain,
leaving us solitude filled with disdain.

You and I were meant to be...
You and I shared a dream...
we fought for our love...
day to day...
but too many people were in our way...
so many asked...
How could we be?...
We came from two different worlds...
One strict...one free...
love has no boundaries...
that's what we believe...
You and I shared a dream...
now seperated by hate...
What was there to gain?...
Are they happy now?...
Seeing us in pain...
from two different worlds...
we paid the price...
love for each other...
was the Ultimate Sacrafice...
prejudism is no lie...
fight back for love...
for in love there is no crime...
farewell my love...
I'm forced to let you go...
remember I love you...
mind, body and soul...
I know in my heart...
we'll meet again...
God will guide us...
he's our only friend...
I'll be waiting for you...
with my arms open wide...
Take care...
I'll miss you...
Love you...
and...
Good bye.
Dear Forbidden Love
I am here to say good-bye.
I know that we are through.
But I had this on my mind...
I wanted you to know that I still loved you even though time has passed.
I know I tried to forget about you, but real love doesn't fade that fast.
I missed you so much I can't explain it so I wont even try.
If there was a way I'd find it if it meant being by your side.
So why should I try and hide it?
My love for you can't ever die.
It can only grow stronger for you.
This is true for a fact my love for you it is so deep that no man nor beast could understand it in the very least.
Our love was unbreakable.
It went beyond the unthinkable.
It went past the sun, moon, and stars.
But even so even it was lost at some point.
Our love was forbidden.
A heart breaker in itself.
Two star-crossed lovers with no one to reach out for help.
This is why I must say good-bye my forbidden love~
She is a dark skin girl
who sings in the church choir
He would see her passing every day
and she sets his heat on fire
He fell in love with her
But they never talk before
He would waits to see her
every day from his front door
He is an Indian boy
Works in his father company
He is an only child
from a very wealthy family
She is just a poor girl
Living down by the train line
She's a down to earth girl
always so polite and kind
One day he sees her walking home
so he went over to say hello
but then sees his father car
So he stop talking and leaves to go
But his father sees him
And at home started to yell and shout
He said "if you to talk to that girl again
You leave the house and get out
Why are you talking to her
To that poor girl who lives in the trace
If any body see you talking to her
you will bring me shame and disgrace
we're arranging marriage to a rich family
With a nice educated girl in san Fernando
We already made the arrangements
and this Sunday we have to go
Well he didn’t sleep all night
He love this poor girl so dearly
And if he don’t do something now
He knows how is his futures going to be
so he lie in bed all night awake
waiting for the break of dawn
then he packs his cloths in bag
and as the sub came up he was gone
Next morning he knocks on her door
her face lights up with a smile
He said if it’s ok with you
I really need to talk to you for awhile
I have always been in love with you
But was to shy to come out and say
but that you know "if you love me to
I will leave my father house today
His father disown his son that day
because their love was forbidden
But they married that that same week
and now have two beautiful children
Parents needs to understand
You can’t control your children mind
When they are grown and seek love
Their own happiness they will find
God created a world for us
With such beautiful nature
Life would be so boring?
If we all were the same color
We live in a world today
Every race thinks they are superior
But no matter what religion you are
There is only one Almighty savior
A love so forbidden, a feeling so tangible yet tainted. Tainted because if the complexity of this charismatic feeling, the flesh of my flesh, yet I crave this man as if it were predestined. I’ve seen him in my dreams; he was sent to me, and I him. How can this be? Is it lust, curiosity, or is it the forbidden fruit? Every day, I look into your eyes and see the man that I long for, the man I crave, the man I want the others to be.
There’s moonlight falling on the ground
The sound of silence all around
Cannot control my thoughts in flight
As we embrace I hold you tight
Impassioned hearts both beat and race
You tremble now as face to face
I feel your breath on frozen cheek
And yet we dare not even speak
As tears now fill the eyes and fall
Inside we hear the parting call
It’s time for us to say goodbye
We can’t go on living a lie
The stars are witness from above
We must resist forbidden love.

Forbidden love, deadly finales, Cupid’s tragic legacy
An altering agonizing fate, a lover's tale the soul it'll violate
Romeo n Juliet had pure love, pure ecstasy
Forbidden love, deadly finales, Cupid’s tragic legacy
Samson’s lust, Delilah’s betrayal bribed from jealousy
Secrets unfurled delayed, poison secures not heaven’s gate
Forbidden love, deadly finales, Cupid’s tragic legacy
An altering agonizing fate, a lover's tale, the soul it'll violate
In quiet corners where no one sees,
Two hearts find solace, though love's not free.
A gentle touch, a fleeting smile,
In a world that deems their love a trial.
Their love, a secret they must protect,
From judging eyes and harsh neglect.
They hold each other in the dark,
Wishing the world would warm to their spark.
They dream of days without disguise,
Where love can live beneath open skies.
But for now, they whisper and wait,
Holding tight to a love the world won't celebrate.
He stood upon the cliffs awaiting the sunrise
Watching as the last of the moon descended
Anticipating the light meeting the sea
Listening to the waves kissing the shore.
As the tips of light began to reflect
He saw her on the rocks below
Sable hair embracing her shoulders
Skin so pale against the sea washed rocks
He watched as she finger combed her tresses
Humming softly to the morn
A siren song to warm and greet him
Watching, yearning, wanting more.
She must have felt his eyes upon her
Green met fawn linking sea and sky
Caressing, calling, passions rising
Heart beats crashing with the tides
Both knew magic in their souls
Part man, part hawk he spread his wings
On gentle currents down he drifted,
Softly landing on the shore.
But soul mates they could never be
For she was not his kind
Through eyes that glistened with briny tears
She bidden him good life and goodbye
For her world was not of air and sun
Her world was wet and blue
She donned her skin and swam away
As selkie maidens do.
Deep into the chambers of her heart,
Lies a dark secret,
Yes, she was a wildfire.
Curly blond hair staring at the sun
Striking blue eyes facing the darkness
The shade, the pain
Looking at the unforgettable
The unseen, the unlovable
She has found her feet stuck in sadness
She has found her heart chasing her love
He holds her happiness in his hand
He holds a tear in his eye
But the blond-hair-blue-eye girl...
She has a waterfall streaming down her face
Dine a la carte
with my secret sweetheart
a half dozen roses
in differing poses
champagne glass in hand
soft notes from the band
vows ever after
sweet smiles and laughter
eyes locked in stare
romance in the air
emotions a-brew
old blending with new
eyelids a-fluttering
to whispered sweet nothings
vows ever after
sweet smiles and laughter
Love ballad dancing
and sensuous prancing
a oneness of feeling
and merging of being
open-eyed nose-meet
wings on the feet
vows ever after
sweet smiles and laughter
Instead we are pained
to outsiders chained
with emptiness fraught
our love counts for naught
mere love poems writ
twixt two lovers smit’
no vows ever after
sweet smiles or laughter
*******************************
FORBIDDEN LOVE
Forbidden love
Respects no one
An insidious love
Deserves no one
It is immoral
All becomes mortal
Life turns brutal
Casualties are fatal
Forbidden love is desperation
Destroys ones soul
A dejection
Like a no milk cereal in a bowl
Two people finding their ways
Making it conceivable
Beyond unimaginable ways
It just cannot be enable
Forbidden love
An illicit affair
One deserves unconditional love
Not love that is unfair
