The ephemeral ocean of eternal love,
Where memories dance within the interval of waves faraway.
Everything is lost yet eternal shall be the love.

This ocean unlike its name is not so gracious, no, it's malicious.
This is the place where the pitiful souls have been stray.
The ephemeral ocean of eternal love.

The last chapter for the lovers with unacceptable love
When every lithe spark of hope has gone grey;
Everything is lost yet eternal shall be the love.

Once there was prince and a pitied boy, bound by love,
A forbidden love no one would accept, no way.
So they fled to the ephemeral ocean of eternal love

Here comes the soldiers with shining blades to slay this love;
Refusing to accept defeat the boys kissed goodbye and emerged in the faraway waves.
Everything is lost yet eternal shall be their love

A place where drowned many souls bound by true love
And place for souls with unheard prays;
The ephemeral ocean of eternal love,
Everything is lost yet eternal shall be the love.

A/n: this is my very first villanelle so don't expect much. Writing it was FAR more difficult than I thought it would be. It took me more than an hour and required a lot of planning.
Ps: don't kill yourself like them.
