Romantic Writing

As Juliet 
had felt remorse 
upon the view 
of Romeo’s corpse,
She took her life 
to share with him, 
a life of love, 
set on the wind

Where for art thou, 
destined bride? 
From destined groom 
you cannot hide
I’ll take you then, 
I’ll win your love, 
we’ll fly together 
eternally above.

As Shakespeare penned 
in Old English ink, 
of love that’s shattered
 in a wink,
He taught us that love 
is so much more 
than any love
 we have felt before.
