Juliet

Thy  beauty, like a jewel, shines
Juliet my love,  I will come to thee
In thy sweet caress I long to be
You're a star in a galaxy divine
A diamond in this crown of mine
Thy ruby red hair beckons me
As I gaze in thine eyes lovingly
Mesmerized in this essence that is thine

I am drawn to thee like a moth to  a flame
As the wings of my heart flutter in delight
But the beast within me cannot be tamed
As I am illuminated by thy light
Indeed,  beauty is thy name
Thou art a  most precious gem in my sight

The wording shines out in this one. It is rare on the soup to read old English correctly done, but this is spot on! Great feeling in this poem too.
