Romeo & Juliet

The steady beating of my heart thumps out a rhythm with the rain.
It falls in sheets, hard and cold, mimicking my pain.
I glance at the window that's covered in water,
And think of you, growing farther and farther.
The rain is falling soft and cool.
I step outside, to where I find you.
We shouldn't be here, we're not allowed.
But still we stand, our heads are bowed.
You look at me, full of sorrow,
And we run and run, escaping tomorrow.
But we never will.
