Star Crossed Forever
Star crossed lovers
Right from the start
Believing upon their wishes
Crossing both their hearts
They went to see a gypsy
All wise with a crystal ball
Wanting to know the future
Needing to hear it all
She told them it was destiny
That one day they would meet
To be together forever though
It wasn't meant to be
Each held something special
The other had to give
Once the gifts were exchanged
Their paths would sadly drift
So in love the two they were
They didn't heed the warning
Living day in day out
In holy matrimony
The years flew by before their eyes
They never saw it coming
But life she has her way
Her own twist in their story
She grew sick, got pale and thin
Her insides began slowly dying
He tried so hard to keep her well
To the point of his own demise
The night they passed
All who witnessed will never forget
The two who were never meant to be
Died in their sleep holding hands forever
