At an early age they fell in love

They were perfect for eachother just like two turtle doves.


A woman elated a man

Their love’s hourglass never ran out of sand

Even with all their sorrow,

Their comfort from eachother gave them hope for tomorrow


Their love was as simple as child’s play

Most people could not comprehend all the late nights caring for eachother

Then again it was not for the outside man to understand


Since the beginning

They were together as one,

Not a woman nor just a man


He always promised to be there

Even if it was just by the slightest touch of hand

The strength of their love conquered all

Then the movie played again
