Author's Note: Just another one of my sons this one written about all those people who are "in love" every few month. enjoy.

Star-crossed lovers at age sixteen

believing in the wildest dreams.

Forever and ever-wish them luck on this endeavor.

(oh please.)

--

So you wanna play Romeo and Juliet?

Drink the poison, stab the heart,

succumb to the horrors of this dark.

--

Ten months later and you’ve quit.

A new Romeo enters and it’s forever.

(Guess forever doesn’t last long in this skit.)

--

So you wanna play Romeo and Juliet?

Drink the poison, stab the heart,

You're the horror in the dark.

--

You make me sick.

As you take your pick another dies of broken heart-

I’ve heard this story before.

All fall at your feet but you won’t ever see me.

(Here we go again.)

--

(Star-crossed lover at age sixteen

never saw the deceit in every dream.

You can’t undo what you’ve done

or change the monster you’ve become.)

--

So let’s play Romeo and Juliet just one more time.

Drink the poison, stab the heart,

succumb to the horrors of this dark.

But when all is said and done you’ll still lose,

and regret the path you choose.
