Forever withheld,
the emotions that rage within.
Never to know daylight,
always existent in darkness.
This desire for you shall be hidden,
forbidden life,
trapped by walls of my own design.
Oh, to tumble the blockade
that holds me separate from you.
To hear freedom’s bells turn
into harmonies of love,
my senses surrounded
by the very essence of you.
To forget everything,
from self-consciousness to fear,
lost within your embrace.
