Is it wrong?

by Daniel Jimenez   Oct 16, 2005


What do you say when you love someone so much
that you can't breathe without her near?
How do you express this feeling deep inside
that feels so familiar yet queer?

Is it wrong to love someone so much
that you can't sleep at night in bed
because while you're laying there in the dark
she keeps dashing through your head?

Is it insane to feel this way?
If so, I don't want to be sane!
For if it's crazy to love her like this
then I have nothing left to explain.

I miss her so much but I'd never tell her.
I don't want her to think I am a freak.
But oh the happiness I have found
when her beauty I do seek!

Is it wrong to write her name on my hand
while class is going on all around?
While my professor is lecturing on this and that
my attention is no where to be found.

Is it odd to wake up with her on my mind?
My lips ache for a good morning kiss!
I never thought that early mornings
would bring me so much bliss.

What do you do when no matter where you go
you can't escape those thoughts so sweet?
That fill you with a pleasant warmth
that flows from your head down to your feet.

Is this wrong? And if so then why?
Where is the harm in loving another soul?
Love is what fills that gaping void -
it's what makes us complete and whole.

If love is innocent and pure without flaw
then why is it wrong to feel this way?
If love is all we need be happy
then why does she push me away?

If in me lays a perfected love
that seeks not pain nor calamity
then should I be ashamed
of what stirs within me?
