Breath stolen
in the warmth of a kiss
Pasts laid bare
nearly for all to see
Yet the two were entwined
as if tied their by string
It nearly seemed as if
they'd lost track of time
or were uncaring about the audience
Lips refused to part
Hands refused to yield in their hold
Caught nearly unaware
These two were lost
in feelings that never seemed to make sense
and a moment that screamed eternal
Two bound by a love too deep for them,
a love forbidden by law and by family
The related version of Romeo and Juliet
seemed nearly fitting of a title for them
for they could never have the title that others could
nor could they raise a family of their kin together
All they had and would have
were each other
Among every drunken argument
and every pains-taken form of guilt
to every stolen moment
This is all they had
and would have
But it would never conceal a love so strong
that time could never erase it
Love wasn't easy,
but it was strong.
