‘Romeo, Romeo! Wherefore art thou Romeo?‘
(Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 2)
By Shakespeare
that night they were to meet
but Romeo got cold feet
on Valentines Day
he went away
Romeo was afraid to commit
because he would have to submit
her sweet exterior
hid her real demeanor
she passed herself as shy and sweet
but he knew he would take a back seat
so, he sent her a short letter
saying “I’m outta here!”
