I Love But Mustn'T Poem by Susan Sybenga

The feelings arise in my heart
against my will
What do I do with them?
Should I let spill?

I am not free to express
all the love in my soul
I see you, speak to you
and my heart is full

I am not free to feel
I love you but I mustn't
I cannot help myself
My heart runs away with me.

So I must go away
never see you again
It breaks my heart so
but there is naught to be gained.

We cannot be together
our two worlds separate
perhaps in the next life
the Gods will change our fate.
