How long did it take
For new love to shine?
Two souls became one
In a moment of time.

For when love is true
Right after the fall,
What’s already known
Takes not time at all.

An angel it seems
Had guided their way
In time so that they
Would be there that day.

“Still, how could this be?”
The Fates did resound.
“No song in their hearts,
To Earth they were bound.”

The angel then said,
“True love set them free,
Uplifting their hearts,
They now fly with me.”
