The Foolish Lovers
Two youth sought together love’s simple truth
Finding ample pleasure just in the other’s arms
Fools were they not to see through the world’s wicked charms
Their love was strong but young
Still the boy listened to the war’s wicked tongue
Away he went to fight full of valor
Never thinking once of his love, only power
When the blood shed was over and all lay dead
She sought him out, her heart filled with dread
The cold moon looked down with distain
On the boy, a wound to the heart his life blood did drain
She never found him in that gloom
As he bled slowly she wept at his tomb
No one to comfort her, no kind words in him to console
The wound and grief each took their toll
He was a fool not to call out to her as she knelt there crying
She was a fool not to look for him as he lay there dieing
His wound seething, his heart was bleeding
As he slowly died
Her heart breaking, she lay there aching
A poison she drank and sighed
As the last of his life blood did seep into the ground along with the tears she did weep
They both lay dead
The story of two greater fools has never been read.
