I was your Romeo,
And you, my Juliet.
Together we rode toward the sunset,
Never wanting that ride to end.
We were in love,
And our love, the talk of the town.
In perfect harmony, we had dreams to share—
Plans for forever, woven with care.
I gave you my heart,
And you, you gave me your all.
You lived in my thoughts,
And I, in your soul.
Like a fairytale, our love felt like a dream,
A fantasy made real, as if the stars could gleam.
But damn…
Did it have to end?
Why, oh why, was it too good to be true?
Like all dreams, we awoke from our slumber,
And like we feared, our love grew colder,
A flame that flickered, then slowly died.
Our love—
Like Romeo and Juliet—
It had to end,
Somehow, somewhere…
