True Love!

Two hearts as one

Both scared to love.

But here they stand

just waiting for the other

To say those special words.

Both worried that they alone

Share these strange feelings.

Neither wanting to be the first to admit.

Because they are scared to get hurt.

One reincarnated priestess and

One half dog demon.

Though forbidden to love

It still breaches their minds.

You can't put rules on these feelings

For such rules do not exist.

Both start to speak

And neither seem to make any sense.

No longer are they alone

And neither is scared.

As they confide a secret to each other.

It's twilight now

Their time alone.

A forbidden love has been revealed.

Both are scared but now feel safe.

They are not as alone as they thought

And now laugh at the silliness.

For it was true love

And true love can be tested

Again and again

And will always prevail.

Now the sun is coming up

And she is asleep in his arms.

He doesn't mind though

For it feels like he's in heaven.

But the others are waking

And have yet to hear the news.

But she smiles lovingly at him

and he feels like he's soaring.

The others can wait just a little while longer,

As he bends down and kisses her sweetly.

It took them a while but true love

Never gives up.

It turns out that

The person they were searching so desperately for

was right in front of their eyes.
