If Loving You Is Wrong Poem by Lebuang Lefa

If Loving You Is Wrong



If loving you is wrong, then let me die,
for in your eyes the truth begins.
All can judge and the stars may frown,
I still choose you and take the crown.

They call it madness, I call it love,
The hearts that met, though far too late.
If right means losing all I feel
Then let wrong be love, and love is real.

As whispers rise, let rules decay,
Come night or day, my heart won't change.
If this love defies the song
Then I'll live guilty all my long life.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem explores the struggle between love and moral judgment. It speaks from the heart of someone who chooses love even when society, rules, or fate say it's wrong. The speaker accepts pain, guilt, and even death if that's what it takes to stay true to their feelings. Through simple yet powerful imagery, the poem captures the beauty of forbidden love, a love that refuses to fade despite time, distance, or disapproval. It is emotional, defiant, and deeply romantic, a confession of love that dares to challenge what is considered right or wrong.
