I felt connected with him
From the first kiss
The kiss that never should have happened.
I knew I wasn’t supposed to love him
Because it was wrong
Because that wasn’t our deal
Because I love another
Because I wear a ring
But I never understood how love could be wrong
Or bad
Or Inappropriate
I’ve always believed that love is always good.
I’ve learned that most don’t agree.
There are rules I’m told to follow
Boundaries I’m told I must not cross
Rules and boundaries that I don’t understand
But I must respect
I wanted to love him.
It’s not like it just happened and I was caught unaware
I saw it coming and I stepped forward to meet it
But it didn’t go far
It couldn’t go far
It was suffocated by the
Rules and the boundaries I don’t understand.
