Elegy (act v, scene iii)

A step beyond the fading lines
Into your arms
I close my eyes
And feel your touch
Upon my skin
Forbidden love
Our time is brief

Steal this hour
As we embrace again
Alone this night
Eternally

Steal this hour as we remain within
Our final scene
A kiss goodbye

A look beyond the fading lines
Stars wake the dawn
Night lingers on
Yet in our fate
I find my peace
Then I'll be brief
And let me die
