Forbidden Boy

Loneliness envelops my body
as I crawl miserably
out of bed.
I stand up,
feebly
as my knees buckle.
Yawning,
I wipe yesterday's make-up from my empty eyes.
I swiftly my head to the right
not yet strong enough
to face my reflection.
Tears suddenly roll down my hopeless face
as I absentmindedly struggle into fresh clothes.
Getting up every ounce
of courage,
I sneak a glance into the mirror,
but I turn away quickly,
frightened.
I do not want to see myself,
without him by my side.
I fall back into my bed,
defeated;
and once all of my tears
have fallen,
Deliberately,
I look into the mirror.
That is when I see him,
in the corner of the reflecting glass,
right beside my face,
The Forbidden Boy.
He kisses away the tears,
and takes the loneliness away,
I smile as I see our reflection,
and cannot stop staring
at the two of us...
so perfect.
That is when I realize
I don't care what they say or think,
I am completely and utterly
in love with
My Forbidden Boy.
