Tag: Poem by Rachel Brown

His eyes so

full of sadness this night that only I can give

him what he truly needs as much as I,

do this night so cold and lonely in the way this heart breaks

for the man I love so much even

now when hopes and dreams shatter

upon the floor at my

feet none can see the pain in my heart

which I hide so well even when

it hurts so much in all that is meaningful in my

life;

I hide what I fear could

end my freedom for all eternity

even when love should be able

to conquer every little thing that stands in its

way.

I will someday find

a way to rebel against the ones who ruined

my perfect happiness so dear in all it means to me

and this life of mine,

Love is strong, stronger than anything else

on earth and I will find a way to

be with the man I do love

so much even when pain gets locked up inside

my heart so true;

I truly want to

find a way to happiness

where this heart can never be

even when I long for it to be so

easily achieved on

every given level.

I will love

like Romeo and Juliet

never to give into a forbidden desire like

that,

of a true fairy tale

of love and unrequited honesty which

gives me the right to love and never lose

where it is that

nothing could replace what’s real

in my life;

but alas he is the one

that makes me feel most alive in all

that is meant to be

no one could ever stop me from feeling

like a destiny that’s

been meant to happen since my past so full

of sorrow in all the ways

that have given me a

true peace of mind.

I will never

truly change when others call

us forbidden,

ah but none can fully understand

where it is that

my heart lies for all

that I am worth;

my past brought me back to

who I was meant to be without a second

thought

ah but we cannot

last like this even when I’m born to love

him with all my heart.
