Lovers Fate

Meeting in secret,
Sneaking out late.
Hands linked together,
Cupid was simply fate.

Sharing knowing looks,
No one must know.
But when love is that strong,
It ends up on show.

Things turn nasty,
As their secret was revealed.
Before something happened,
In wedlock it was sealed.

But alas, they were found,
And a dear friend lied.
Their crime cost their lives,
And together they died.
