Come one, Come All
And lend me your ears
I'll tell you a story
Of love and of tears
Another modern day case
of Romeo and his Juliet
A story I hope
You won't soon forget
Two lover separated
By rules set in stone
Romeo beloved by all
Juliet all alone
Her eyes gazed adoringly
At him in high school halls
He still blind to her love
No matter how deep she falls
He a senior
Respected and feared
She a meer freshman
Scorned and jeered
She thought she was invisible
In his eyes which radiance glown
Imagine her surprise
When interest in her he shown
So she finally worked up the nerve
To have a little chat
Slowly a friendship grew
Although she wanted more than that
Each night they talked for hours
And each night fonder grew her heart
If she prayed hard enough she believed
A fairy-tale romance would soon start
A night had come, her parents gone
An opprutinity for her friend to become more
Just as she finished shaking
A knock at her front door
Opened it up to see her love
Looking beautiful as ever
As they talked she looked deep in his eyes
And wished they could be together
"My Romeo, My Romeo
Where for thou art?
My Romeo, My Romeo
You consume all of my heart."
And so he began to leave
And walked right out her front door
Turned back and looked her in the eyes
And gave her the kiss she'd been waiting for
And so for weeks
She lived happily in bliss
She longed desperately for the warmth
She recieved from his kiss
And then a dark and stormy night
A weepy conversation the two led,
When Romeo finally confessed to her
I have been in another's bed
"My Romeo, My Romeo,
Where for art thou be?
Romeo, answer me this
Do you love her more than me?"
So for many nights our Juliet
Cried lonely in her bed
Wondering if she'd done something wrong
Or what wrong words she said
"Juliet it is not your fault
I am the one to blame
For disguising my lust as love
For making you think I felt the same"
"My Romeo, worry not,
I don't care about the love you lack
I just need to hear you breath
I just want you back"
And so the two reunited
But not in love but simply lust
But in simply seconds
Juliet lost his trust
She cried to him I can't live without you
Gasping for each breath
He responded to her harshly
Saying then she would have to accept death
Please don't do this to me she cried
You're everything I need
He said this is not love
She said "I'll show you how to bleed"
Ran to her bed and took the pills
That would bring her to here death
And just as in case that was not enough
She slit her wrists and gasped on her last breath
Many mourned and cried for her
Looked at her flesh so ripped apart
Realized she did not die simply from the blood
But of a broken heart
You may be wondering to youself
Was this a double suicide?
No because Romeo never loved her
He never even tried
Boys long ago were darkly romantic
Rather than live without love, they'd die
Who would chose death over love
I know not a single guy
I hope this story stays with you
A story you soon not forget
Because, my love, you are Romeo
And I am your Juliet

Wow girl this is amazing, I love the way you entwined romeo and juliet into the poem it is wonderful. And you are so right about about how guys used to be so romantic.
Many mourned and cried for her
Looked at her flesh so ripped apart
Realized she did not die simply from the blood
But of a broken heart
