Romeo and Juliet


"Romeo and Juliet"

Two households who are both alike
Day and night, by swords do fight.
Therein are star crossed lovers of household war.
Alike and destined to be no more
With ill fated love as all they bore
For each were shallow paramour.

Though oceans, seas and rivers run dry,
the brightest stars, they too will die.
and end to all not true but lie,
two hearts will hold and time untry.

But in that end though, love is spent.
As currency of their intent,
All shall sing a sad lament
And only death will be benevolent

Their untimely death buries their parents' strife
by using a happy sacred knife
Their fearful love reeked with great despair,
does take the place of anger in the air.
The continuance of their parents duel, does end when the lovers lives do cool.
