Two Lovers

Two lovers, so different yet so alike
One's name is Sara, the other is Mike.
One is a doctor, the other is a prisoner
Despite these differences, they've fallen for each other.

She was just a plan, a means to an end.
He never meant for her to be more than a friend.
He was a patient, just another con,
She wasn't supposed to focus her attention upon.

They tell each other secrets, but sometimes pull away.
And they never say the things they need to say.
They take one step forward, but two steps back.
Their tension is enough to give someone a heart attack.

They are romance defined, but tragedy personified.
For in between them is this thick dark line.
It separates them and keeps them apart.
Yet it cannot deny what they feel in their heart.
