I am fearful of the thoughts that haunt me
The fantasies that fought to be played out
I wonder if things were slightly altered
If I could admit these feelings to you

There is a law or two I’d like to circumvent
Or ignore and pray to not get caught
There is a restriction on the love I can show
Social norms that make it impossible to be open

The fact I can’t resist you, frustrates me even more
Catching me between the wants and can’t haves
Either way I choose, I lose
So I suffer in silence

I know it is wrong to deny my heart
There is nothing I want more than to be with you
If only I was less fearful of social judgments
Or you were of an age to accept my love

You have just reminded me again that life is just that brutal and feelings are a mess that conditions no rules or limits.
