It feels so forbidden

So salty and sweet

My mother just wants to give us a treat

We beg and beg until she finally gives in

I feel like I’m living a life of sin

When we listen to our cravings, life becomes a living hell

We couldn’t keep it a secret, but we didn’t tell

So weird, a smile across my face but a tear in my eye

The least I could do would be to protect this lie

The guilt isn’t enough to make me toss and turn

But the idea of it makes me want it again, makes me yearn

If only I could keep it hidden, so it wouldn’t be so forbidden
