Another Romeo & Juliet Tragedy Poem by Nautica Moxley

Another Romeo & Juliet Tragedy

Rating: 4.5


We had never laid an eye,
Never breathed a word,
Never so much as touched by hand,
We were separated,

Then,
The day came,
He saw me and I saw him,
Our eyes never parted,

He came,
Took my hand,
And asked for a dance,
How could I deny him that chance?

From that dance,
Lead a kiss,
So soft, gentle,
And created such a sensational bliss,

The night grew tired,
But we could not rest,
From my window I thought,
About the Romeo I met,

From my garden,
He watched,
A shadow in the night,
Then a light shinning bright as I saw him,

He announced to me his love,
And I to him,
He was of enemy decent,
But mine he was meant,

Families denied us,
But we may never give up,
I shall be his Juliet,
And he my Romeo,

Our chance to unite was thin,
But we only needed the other in the end,
A false poison was bestowed upon me,
So that death would draw out my dear Romeo,

But my love felt my leaving was true,
So my sweet sweet Romeo took his life,
And with my one and only love by my side,
As I awoken to find him truly gone,
With a weapon I took mine.
