Forbidden Romance

The sun drenched days turn dreary and gray
As my dreams of love fade slowly away
In the depths of my soul, an ache so deep
For a love that's unattainable, I weep

Like a rose that withers untouched by a bee
I watch love's beauty pass ever so fleetingly
Forlorn and ignored, my heart's silent plea
To be noticed and to be set free.
