This Isn't Love

Though you are beautiful
You wound me, my soul impaled
You are my sorrow my love
You have made my life pale
Sucking from my marrow
Blood, and my joy inhaled
You said in secret how you loved me
But you are denying me out loud
You said you wanted more from me
But acknowledging love isn't allowed
Just why do you pretend
Why this act of subtle disdain
If you were to tell the world
You'd be filled with shame
You've made my life a shambles
With your foolish acts
I refuse to play in your drama
You've lost the power to enchant
This could have been perfect
A love without flaw
But you make it torment
A crime without a cause
