Forbidden

Most people have always been taught to fear the dark rather than to embrace it
In the modern day this causes controversy
Some no longer even desire to ponder upon
For it is still considered forbidden
As fear even keeps kindred spirits hidden
Those black hands touching that white skin
No surprise when the rules originate from a male stale pale source
Wielding this cruel callous authority in places far and wide
Showing boundless love to the near and dear
Whose natural masks from birth they wear ever so clear
Unbelievably true some may say
With the depth of a conditional cosy intimacy that stops on  the surface of the skin
Nor does it start from the outstretched reaches of the heart
Fawning Feigning everlasting presence
When in reality flowery flames exist in a silent absence
