Forbidden Love

My love is all over your floor.
Make sure you don't slip in it when you come across to me.
For my love was here since the time of Socrates
But you discovered it as I became the forbidden fruit

Step over it lightly
For I've been given the blood of Christ, and, it's easy to draw you in
Oh, I amuse you don't I?
With the hope I have of something that could never be
All I know is a part of me still wants you
And a part of me still wants him.

Oh, how sometimes I wish things would change
How I wish you had wanted me earlier
But now it's too late, and the petals from the rose are falling
One by one, each representing a quality of my patience
I hope they remain there forever

I know I should wrong myself for saying all this
I should feel like a terrible fish jumping out of the ocean
Slowly dying, ugly to the world
But I can't help but fall in love with you
I can't help but live in the past
As I also live in the present

But oh, how sometimes I wish things would change
How I wish you had loved me earlier
But now it's too late, and the petals from the rose are falling
One by one, each representing a quality of my strength
I hope they remain there forever

I wonder what he would say
If he read all this
He has no idea
No idea of my feelings
A perfect camouflage elating
Oh I wonder what he would say
but I'm too afraid to tell him

What should I do?
I've been spending some time with my good friend the daisy
You love me, you love me not
And then I get a sense of guilt
Because he loves me, and I love him

Step over me lightly
For I've been given the blood of Christ, and, it's easy to draw you in
Oh, I amuse you don't I?
With the hope I have of something that could never be
All I know is a part of me still wants you
And a part of me still wants him

Oh, how sometimes I wish things would change
How I wish you had loved me earlier
But now it's too late, and the petals from the rose are falling
One is left, and it's dragging me down
I hope you tell me what to hope from this
And I hope it lasts forever.
