Forbidden

It's so forbidden, yet genuinely welcomed
Only by myself
Who once built up the walls now crashing all around.
Don't dare make a sound,
For I can't break this constant falling. 

It's as easy as the leaves on their trees,
Colors changing fluently,
Then falling to their hopeless fate;
Never to take,
but to give to the nature of changes.

Change is my enemy, not my friend.
I can't pretend
That I'm carelessly devoted to nothing.
Now it's something-
Which is what terrifies me the most.

I'm leaving, and you come back.
It's all so fast
And the time that was once on my side is buried
My guard now varies;
It never seems to stay high and strong.

Oh, I now see that I was wrong.
It's gone on too long
For me to stand up and run away,
I want you to stay
I've become what I despise and hate.

I rely on my broken heart far too much,
I can't love.
It's not in my blood- It's not what I wanted.
Now my soul is haunted
By the unforgettable fear that I welcome in.

My love, we can't go on much farther.
My world's turning darker
They tell us the things we don't want to hear
Just draw near,
You seem to change my mind with such ease.

How do you do it? Do I do the same?
I call your name;
Do I really do the things you do to me?
You smile, I breathe.
It's that simple, the things you do to me..

I reminisce in the moments you are here.
It feels like it's been a year
Since I've heard you laugh, since I've been by your side.
You're mine tonight,
and I'll cherish every minute of this moonlight.

Why is everything so complicated?
The nights, the days..
Everything about us seems to be insane.
We're fire and rain
The two can't be together, so why are you still here?

Despite the forbidden threats, I can't stop the fall.
Through it all,
Let's trust the Lord to get us through this mess.
You, I confess,
Are becoming an addiction that I can't restrain.

Call my name,
He'll get us through the rain.

Author's Note

Still iffy on this one. Hopefully I will improve it as the days go by. Reviews are well appreciated!

"That I'm carelessly devoted to nothing.

-Very powerful symbolizes various directions. I can easily relate.

"Call my name,
He'll get us through the rain."

-You can also pray to vanish under the rain's sighs together. I love the rain, it only brings truth and cleanliness.

-Beautiful exploration of self-worth and bitter-sweetness in love. Thanks for the rr.

When we over analise our work we become critical of it and lose the joy of creation. As others have already said, this is a good write.
