Love is illegal
There is no such thing as legal love.
A kiss gets you 1 to 3 hours in ISS.
Hugs get you a talking to, holding hands gets you the look.
Kisses become known as making out,
Hugs become known as groping,
And holding hands? They’re still working on that.
No sitting next to each other, no touching,
No talking, Can’t be in same groups, can’t even be in the same classes,
And don’t even look at each other.
If PDA is illegal then tell us.
At class meetings, in handbooks, or put up signs!
We can’t fight the law, nor live with it if there is none.
Love’s so illegal it confuses me.
Is it wrong to love?
Is it wrong to show love?
Or is the person I love wrong for me?
Do they want me to cheat?
Or have us break up?
If we break up will everyone be happy?
To see me depressed and tormented with no understanding?
If love is so wrong then forever alone we shall be.
Love’s so illegal,
If we get talked to again, suspension for 3 days.
No detentions, no ISS, no calls home.
It’ll be our 2nd visit to the office,
Unless you include the time I went to ask about it last year.
Love’s so illegal,
I don’t even care.
Holding hands make me fight quietly in my mind.
Hugs comfort the anger; confusion, depression, & sadness I feel from this law.
The kisses make me remember how idiotic you are about love.
Loves so illegal in school, that everyone believes the school is going religious.
Love maybe illegal,
But true love is a code red.
