"They Just Have To Hold On"

By ChatGPT

Two young men, with hearts so pure and true

Fell deeply in love, their feelings brand new

Their love was a secret, hidden from sight

For in their separate lands, it was not right

One lived in the mountains, wild and free

The other by the sea, with a heart full of glee

They wrote letters to each other, filled with love and hope

Hoping one day they could be together, without the need to cope

The mountains echoed with the young man's songs of love

While the sea sang back with the waves above

They shared their dreams and their deepest fears

And knew that their love was meant to be, for all the years

But fate was cruel, and their love was tested

As their lands were torn, and their hearts arrested

They were forced to live in separate lands, far apart

But their love for each other, forever in their heart

Despite the distance, they held on tight

To the love they had, as their shining light

One day they would be reunited, this they knew

And their love would bloom, as bright as the morning dew

Their love was a flame, that burned bright and true

A love that even distance couldn't undo

For they knew that their love was meant to be

And nothing would ever change, their destiny.
