Music and silence are polar opposites, |
I've been meaning to read/comment this poem but I was extremely busy with my own life sorry Andrew! Alright let me start this :) |

You cannot truly appreciate music if you have not heard silence first. I do like how you based the plot on Shakespeare. It was interesting to read it in that way. But it works, romeo and Juliet were lovers from different kind of families. But they fell in love or were in love before hand. This goes hand in hand. You don't think silence to be in love with music but it is kind of true. They are opposites yes, but you really cannot have one without the other. Silence seems to be Juliet and music is Romeo. Heh. Anyways I cannot say much more than what has already been said. Great write Andrew. Very clever! 5/5. |

Oh my wow. Best poem I have read by a modern poet. 5/5 |
This poem just takes my breath away. |
This is really a stunning piece, Andrew. I loved the direction you took the prompt! Using Shakespeare as inspiration here was very lovely. Romeo and Juliet is my favorite of his, so I have to say I'm rather fond of anything that incorporates it. |
