Scarlet Letter of the Heart

by Callen Damornen

Eye met eye and I fell for you

How I longed to feel your touch

Forbidden love held in secret

We could only go so far.

We can never let on

The feelings we have

It's just not right.

Why are we punished

To feel so strong

In a love that can't be?
