Forbidden Love

You were enchanted And took my love for granted... You thought I was a kitten But I turned out to be a lion! Now that you have been bitten, And you are no longer wanted, I am made of flesh, not of iron... Once and for all, I took your mask off And judged you By your actions, Not real love or passion, You turned me off... I uncovered the secret In your heart hidden, Aware that I ate of the fruit That was forbidden, Revealed was the truth! Now, brokenhearted, I sing a different song, To another man you belong And you hid it from me Before we got started But one day you will pay For your misdeed And alone you will stay! At this moment, Trapped with no choice, I continue with this torment That clearly mutes my voice! Hoping to find a real love, I silently plead to One above!
