Uknown to many
A secret lay asleep
On a separate earth
Owned by two longing
desperate souls
The two desperate
souls longed for a
belonging to which
they held in secret
for each other
A Forbidden Love
the people can not know
for fear of exposure
and for fear of rejection
of the souls
On the separate earth
a fairy tale was born
it was a tale where
eternity blessed them
with prosperity
and with child
never to fear their fears
Visiting that desolate place
kept them hopeful
dreaming of it
kept them alive
and longing for it
drove them with a passion
to reach it at all costs
A courage mustered from one
an understanding from the other
combined they felt unstoppable
and their love at last was shared
But the common folk didn't accept
their fears were confirmed
but they smiled and went on
love held them together
love kept them strong
love gave them a reason to go on
when their hearts wanted nothing but to quit
The message isn't rebellion
in fact its not what the story's about
Love works in many strange ways
and theirs was a kind that held on
life became a pride and joy
and many a happy year their way it did come
