Shhhh...

Their eyes meet across the floor.
Their hearts flutter, soon they soar.
They share a wordless secret.
Though easy to interpret.
Their plight is quite tragic,
But their love; is it magic?
They discreetly leave the palace,
Onlookers full of malice,
For the lovers should not be together,
If only this night could last forever.
They part with a kiss,
Their eyes fill with bliss,
But they will be together soon,
By tomorrow's afternoon.
The time goes by endlessly,
They meet together triumphantly.
They embrace. Their lips, light as feathers.
They leave their homes to be together,
Knowing their love will last forever.
