The Love Romeo and Juliet Never Knew
Not a second goes by that I don't
Want you.
I'm a glass half empty
A song without a voice
A prayer without a God
And a bird without wings
When we're apart.
You have changed everything.
The way I breathe
The way I walk
The way I love.
Your touch sets me free, while
Your absence imprisons me to
Desperation.
You are the bottle
That carries my message.
I whisper in your ear
All the temptations that entice me.
Of the 7 Deadly Sins,
Lust is my choice
But it is not my shame.
Of this one sin, I
Shall not repent
For loving you is not one of my regrets.
Our love is a love that
Shakespeare could not comprehend.
But when the sun rises
I take my leave
And I am unaware of my return.
So promise me,
One last night to chance.
Grasp me roughly
And love me gentle.
Pull me close,
Skin to skin.
Look into my eyes,
I dare you to love.

I wrote this poem with my boyfriend in mind. Nobody could ever comprehend the love I have for him, and that is what I am trying to show with this poem.
