West Side Story

They were star-crossed lovers in the Ghetto
The Universe never meant for them to become one
For the stars were not in alignment
But they did it anyway
And despite whatever threat met them
Their love flourished
Like a rose pushing through two pieces of concrete
But eventually they cracked under the pressure
And he fell from his grace right into her arms
As she held his body close to her heart
She looked into the eyes of what had killed him
And realized they were the same ones she had fallen in love with.
