Love Is Not Old

Yet mere love is not old,
It just has a new twist to be told.
It only comes out if one wish to seek,
But it is not for the weak.
For some, love is only a game,
To which they get all their fame.
But for the fair Juliet looking for her
Suitor is just a matter of time.
For off in the distance there comes
Romeo for he speaks in rhyme.
For these two being star-crossed
Lovers wasn’t bad.
Until the end when it was all over,
Then it was sad.
From this I tell you love is not old,
It just needs to be told.
