Romeo was bleedin in fair somewhere And Juliet stood laughing Cause she could see his fear. The stained glass depicts the scene An old familiar pain Wounded Romeo, the sadist masochist Dying crimson the altar floor. Fornification made into a sacred vow Which he could not partake. Smoking roses smoldered in Juliet’s pale hands The fire of her soul once reduced to ash Now burns eternal with blue white flame. Never to be his Her compassion now cold as his premature tomb Just as HE was never to be hers. And this is the true story of the tragic star crossed lovers Romeo murdered at Juliet’s blade For the crimes he made of her innocents and dignity Death better than return to this darkness The poison kissing softly her sweet lips She takes her last breath and softly laughs Goodbye. |
Now that's a very original take on the dynamic of the classic story. Perhaps this Juliet is a modernist-feminist. Quite engaging. Thanks for sharing 👌| Posted on 2014-02-08 00:00:00 | by CrypticBard | [ Reply to This ] | |
