Juliet's Romeo

by Kaylee   Jul 8, 2006


Interwoven breath through fingertips,
slipping between laced heartstrings,
plucking cords to the tune of Juliet's
fallen Romeo, a lover which cast a
stone into the galaxy; eternal roulette

Entwined sadness displayed in a,
kiss of bitter rasberries stripped,
Too soon of their natural flavor,
Folded inside a used white napkin,
In which thought to live in solitude,

In sensing a symphony cut as,
sweeping eyes gazed upon her,
Beneath intense starlit night,
Keeping in time with a rhythmic
heart, drowning in struggled breath,

Velvet whispers, unspoken words,
Heard through motions tumbling,
Through a lone wandering tear,
Wiped with the back of Romeo's hand,
That soon held the trembling Juliet,

With one kiss; deep inside a soul,
Came Juliet's call for dear Romeo.

    Oh my. I can't believe I hadn't read this one either! This was amazing, Kaylee. You vocab was great thing. It was so different to most love poems I read. And that's what's so good about it. It's different and really cute at the same time. And another thing is, that you can write a sad poem, a love poem or even a nature poem or anything, and they're all fantastic. This one was beautiful and heartfelt, and I hope you know how talented you really are. I admire your writing. It's great. Keep it up! Hope to see some more poems from you. =P 5/5

    Wow. You certainly captured the sadness and intensity that surround Romeo and Juliet. The only criticism is that your punctuation stunts the flow somewhat.
