Bound Together Forever

Be my Romeo, I can be your Juliet; 
Then again, on second thought 
let’s be a fairy tale not written yet; 
Clipped by Cupid’s boomerang shot; 

Arrow directed at someone else 
clear target in perfect range, 
but instead misfires and hits us;
Then our world is completely changed;

A connection no one can understand;
The final silence before a battle cry, 
we won’t let go of each other’s hand; 
No concept of the word ‘goodbye’ 

Cheek to cheek bound together, 
a story to be held by the world forever.
