In the midst of chaos and fear,
When the world seemed to disappear,
A masked romance did appear,
As two hearts drew ever near.
Their faces hidden from view,
But their eyes sparkled like dew,
And in that moment they knew,
Their love would be strong and true.
They danced in the moonlight's glow,
With the stars putting on a show,
Their hearts beating in a flow,
As they swayed to and fro.
They whispered secrets to each other,
Underneath their masks they did smother,
Their love did not need another,
For they had found their perfect lover.
As the night drew to a close,
They both knew what they chose,
Their love was more than a pose,
It was something that arose.
For in that masked romance,
They found their true chance,
To love without a glance,
At the outside world's circumstance.
