She has arrived to the island, 21 Century
Five minutes ahead of time
Always early, always late
Without her knowing
Without ever a second chance
She won't see him, won't break it
He's there askew, the same, immobile
Always waiting for her, doing nothing and all
Expectant for what shall never come
Laboring in his life routine and boredom
Sitting by the death of her unseen eyes
Guilty of losing her under so many past moons
She loved him, unknowingly, in innocent stupidity
Too young to capture the essence of the feeling
Prohibited heresy of all times
Unaware of the cruelty that severed her existence
In awe of the love he professed, he stained his soul
with yet another death under his wings
Consumed by eternity, always waiting
To have that moment repeated today
She fell in his arms and he in her
Until she passed with the scream of the sword
Drops of snow and blood scattered covering their skin
And he lived to wait for her robbed love
While she remained stranded, in between
In her youth, she only felt his hands
His warm breath of desire, as young
A judging priest could not erase the truth
The hidden knowledge of their ancient love
Rekindled, relived and prohibited again
As their matching bloods became this time the sin
He felt her body close, though not for long
For she, once again, scurried through his fingers
Paris was the setting of their fire
Smoke galore and sequence in the air
Just one look and she was his Cinderella
And once again, he was her prohibited king
He was her favorite as something in her memory
Brought her back to fancy she once knew him
This man was elegant, a real gentleman
And she was the circumstantial sweetheart as before
In the wrong place, as always his predilection
With the same untamable love for him
By the shore he wrote, Je t'aime
She was captivated by his manly chest
They loved each other as an old piece of antique
That belonged to others in the distance
Until again she was taken forever
And she made a new world to forget him
He remembers now time and time
She knows why they can't be together
Their mistakes were repeated unrestrained
Or was it life powers, higher judgements
Not wanting to allow a love so pure
Playing to break these unbreakable souls?
They got smart this time around
It hurt to hear from him and not to talk
His pain is deep to know she's not with him
But it must be done this way
For they and their love will win
The prize to, in time, be together
