Eternal 
by Ela Lourenco .. 

We were so full of joy back then.

Our love filled the air,

The future so full of hope.

As you leaned in to kiss me

On that impromptu carriage ride

I knew that we were eternal

Our love would never die.

You looked at me as though

No one else existed.

Each day as though seeing me

For the very first time.

I don’t know when it happened

I don’t know how or why

But one day you began

To look at another that way

So along with our love

You had to die…
