JULIET
In Honor of William Shakespeare
And his "Romeo and Juliet"
A Poem
(Written in 1999)
Juliet, Juliet!
Where art thou, my Juliet?
Wherefore art thou not, Juliet?
Why art thou not a part of my life,
Sweet Juliet?!
Juliet, Juliet,
Without thee I am a void
What is it that keeps us apart?
Why must I endure my life alone?
Juliet!!
Juliet, Juliet,
Where art thou, my Juliet?
What must I do to find thee, my Love?
Why have the paths of our hearts still not crossed,
My Juliet?
Oh, Juliet, Juliet,
My entire soul cries out for thee!
My whole being longs for thee, my Sweet Heart!
Why can I not find thee, my Life?
JULIET!!
