Romeo and Juliet

Two hearts hold
both with likened dignity
both capable of a love undying 
both willing to die loving,
There they were
Romeo and his Juliet
what a love theirs was
one like a shooting star up the heavens
a kind of love that comes once in a long while
who is to follow,
the footsteps of this love story
who is to love with no fear nor doubt
volunteer to love and to hold
tight yet easy
to long for no one but their own
I dare my heart today,
I dare yours too
Oh so dearly
Two hearts hold
and create a storm 
so strong yet easy at its core
There they are
Romeo and his Juliet
loving to their own death
a tale unlike any other..... 
I dare my heart to live to feel
