Leviticus 20:29 says: ‘You must not have sexual relations with your mother’s sister or your father’s sister, because that would be exposing a blood relative to shame. They should answer for their error". Taking instructions from this scripture, the underlying reason for this prohibited sexual relations is based on the close blood connection. Since ur cousin is the child of ur mother's/father's sister/brother, there is a clear cut close blood relations between u.
Taking the cue from Hebrews 5:14 which says: "But solid food belongs to mature people, to those who through use have their powers of discernment trained to distinguish both right and wrong", it goes without saying that, it is not every wrong that is written in black and white but thru use of our reasoning with the scriptures, we discover these wrongs a rights. So u shldn't marry ur cousin.
If Abraham married his Sister, you should understand that the remaining stories on marriage in the Bible is bulshit.

If i may ask who did Abraham marry?
2 samuel 13:12 “No, my brother!” she cried. “Don’t be foolish! Don’t do this to me! Such wicked things aren’t done in Israel. 13 Where could I go in my shame? And you would be called one of the greatest fools in Israel. Please, just speak to the king about it, and he will let you marry me.”
You can't marry your Aunty or Uncle or your Father wives
