You are the forbidden fruit.

I'm not allowed you

I cannot touch,

Breathe,

Be with you

I am prevented from seeing you

My life is empty without the touch

Of your gentle caress.

I rot and decay without your words

Whispered softly.

I call out

In the hope you will hear.

My eyes on the crowds

Hoping you are part of them

The desire for you is paramount

I cannot live without you.

But I will have to,

For you are the forbidden fruit.
