Outlaws
We are accused of theft,
Wanted by a whole planet
And here we are,
Two fugitive souls
Fleeing for love
Accused for stealing your Heart,
For having stolen the stars,
For penetrating and entering in your life
And nail a dagger of love
And a rose in your chest.
She is innocent!!
She’s only guilty of loving me too much.
Judge me
Judge me with everything you have:
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Love is not a decision
Love is a promise.
See this ring?
Do you see the necklace that hangs on her delicate neck?
We promised to love each other
And if you, members of the Jury, do not agree
you can condemn ourselves to death
And make us immortal.
