How terrible to be separated from one’s love,
Oceans mocking with their insurmountable gauntlet;
Praying on the tender heart as if expendable.
Elicit my wrath you vile beast!
Love conquers all or so the saying goes,
End your repeated assaults on star-crossed lovers
So that those destined to be united might consume.
Save your sour vengeance for hell,
Releasing us to our burning desires.
Over your objections we shall conquer.
My steel shall slaughter your thirst
And leave us to our own destiny.
Neither man nor beast shall stand in our path,
This I vow until my last breath.
I love you, shall be written in the stars
Completing our journey destined by the Creator.
