Charades

You kiss my lips and I begin to melt
I know this is something I shouldn't do
You and I are separated by generations
Forbidding the love we wish to pursue
You are not like me Dear
You are a different kind
I was put here to separate my race from you
But found my heart trapped in a feeling so divine
You make my heart race and send fire through my bones
I've never felt so alive
Our love may be unnatural and taboo
But on your affection I thrive
What tears me apart is that I can't tell you
Though I assume you already know
It destroys me to run away from you
But I have too much on the line to let it show
You look at me with resentment and heartbreak
As I walk away from your kiss
But I must protect you and myself
Our love cannot exist
Forget me not and pursue me strong
Come back for me one day
Please stay stubborn and defiant
Convince me to run away
Though I am theirs
My heart is yours
This is a feeling that will never fade
But for now I must go
Pretending I could care less
Continuing my charade...
