The night that Romeo had been heartbroken, as any man would be when a girl so beautiful as Rosaline does not return his love. Benvolio, a man with an amazing plan and luscious locks, plans to bring his dear friend/cousin/best bro to the house of Capulet's party, along with their friend Mercutio, a man with radiant eyes from the high house of Verona. The capulets are known as their mortal enemy, for unknown reasons. Possibly an ancient war or a bet. Nevertheless, they despised each other. The party, a beautiful masquerade ball hosted by Lord Capulet and his family, is where the lovers first meet.


This is the real love story behind the infamous tragedy.


A love unlike any other, not what you'd expect

Tybalt and Mercutio together

 Two lovers earning each other respect

They promised their relation forever

Yale daily news explains that they are gay

This long love did come at a risky price

 they loved each other every single day

They always looked to the stars for advice 

The stars told them to admire whomever

Tybalt, Benvolio, a unique pair

Unlike folks in Verona, wherever

Always promising to be very fair 

They said to each other, "I love thee"

This is a joke please do not bully me
