The Lovers

I lay my head upon your chest
This is the place I love the best
Neither life nor death can keep us apart
Our love is ageless, pure of heart

Marbleized we shall stand in shrine
For lovers to see of all times
That as I lay my head upon your heart
We are ageless, immortal, will never part

Though it’s been five hundred years
I still feel your heart beat in my ears
Together our souls will carry on
As our love is so very strong
