Star Crossed Lovers

This Juilet sits and waits,

Ignoring the devilish hands of fates,

Waiting for her Romeo; my man,

As through the hourglass; falls the sand.

Her breathing is ragged and slow,

And slowly she turns to go,

Thinking he will never see,

Just how much he means to me.

I’m confused with the role I have to play,

Are her words the words I should say?

Or in the end will we both just die?

Or will I stumble and fall and eventually cry.

Romeo why haven’t you come for me?

Weren’t we the ones who were supposed to be?

Weren’t we handpicked by the hands of fate?

Weren’t you supposed to be my soul mate?

Is it because of her; The fair Rosaline?

Or is it because loving you, is just one more crime?

Your lips are a sin to touch,

But I can’t help myself; I want them so much.

You are everything, you are my world,

So sit back and watch the truth unfurl.

Because I would gladly die for you,

Look into my eyes; you know it’s true.

Please Romeo, please don’t leave me,

I love you, so why can’t you see?

That she is everything I can never be,

Because in the end I can only ever be me.
