Act: Star Crossed Lover Poem by Maria Sudibyo

Act: Star Crossed Lover



Girl: Some call it destiny
Guy: Some call it treachery
Girl and Guy:  
But we do plan not
To fall in love

Girl:  
Maybe we should not meet
Maybe we should not be born at all
Guy:
Maybe we should not be interested
Maybe we should not give a chance

Girl:  Some say it is beautiful
Guy:  Some say it is madness
Girl and Guy:
But we do listen not
We are suddenly in love

Girl:
And forget our father sentiment
And forget our own predicament
Guy:
And forget the war notion
And forget the true intention

Girl:  Some think it is romantic
Guy:  Some think it is impossible
Girl and Guy:  
But we do notice not
We too engulfed in love

Guy:
Maybe we should separate this way
Maybe we should follow this long standing feud
Girl:
Maybe we should marry our arrangement fiancé
Maybe we should live in blissful oblivion

Girl:  Some feel it is courage
Guy:  Some feel  it is suicide
Girl and Guy:  
But we do care not
We are deep in love

Guy:
They doom it as a failure
They reason it a momentary desire
Girl:
They curse  it a nuisance feeling
They fear it is a threat to all plan

Girl:  Some argue it is nature
Guy:  Some argue it is forbidden
Girl and Guy:  
But we do trouble not
We are together in love

Guy:
Maybe we should be blind
Maybe we should not be kind
Girl:
Maybe we should let it fly
Maybe we should not question why

Girl:  Some find it understandable
Guy:  Some find it irresponsible
Girl and Guy:  
But we do know not
We are full in love

Girl:
Believe in our dream
Believe in our hope
Guy:
Believe in our vow
Believe in our future
