Romeo and Juliet
April 1, 2012
Before Romeo met Juliet
He was just an impulsive guy
Before Juliet met Romeo
She was a girl who didn't know why
When they met one of a hundred nights
Her eyes dimmed the starlights
When her cheeks remained a rosy red
How did he think she was dead
He stopped the beating of his heart
So they'd never be too far apart
To match the silence of her slumbering
He made sure his heart ceased beating
He was a victim of his fatal flaw
She died because of what he saw
A bloody dagger and an empty poison vial
Two star-crossed lovers' funeral
