"Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy" -Norman Vincent Peale


Don't bite your tongue at me

I'm lying, awake, in agony

 

My hand grips silver blade

My blood will soon be splayed

My darling ends her days

Cause I was sent away

I curse my family

Like my best friend

As his life ends

Damn this feuding ancient history

Cause my Juliet was taken from me

 

Hold thy tongue you wretched knave

Don't tell me things will be the same

Hating you like I hate my name

A rose by any other is such a shame

O Romeo, where is Romeo

Well he's gone now, dear Benvolio

And I lie here as the poison numbs

And I die here with my forbidden love

 

I don't know what it was

That attracted me

To sweet daughter Capulet

The enemies seed

But I was so smitten

Even though she was hidden

From my eyes

And even now I am wanting and wishing

For her to return

My golden sun

The light breaks the heart

Of my only love

 

Hold thy tongue you wretched knave

Don't tell me things will be the same

Hating you like I hate my name

A rose by any other is such a shame

O Romeo, where is Romeo

Well he's gone now, dear Benvolio

And I lie here as the poison numbs

And I die here with my forbidden love

 

Oh blast these montagues

I detest them

Like I detest the moon

And Prince Escalus

Banished me so soon

To save my life

But in the end he took two

And now I weep over her cold body

Hold her hands and kiss her lips

Cold as stone sweet just like honey

 

Hold thy tongue you wretched knave

Don't tell me things will be the same

Hating you like I hate my name

A rose by any other is such a shame

O Romeo, where is Romeo

Well he's gone now, dear Benvolio

And I lie here as the poison numbs

And I die here with my forbidden love

I ended up watching Romeo & Juliet and felt...overwhelmed to write this. I am a huge Shakespeare fan
