"O Romeo, Romeo,
Wherefore art thou Romeo?"
He is nowhere to be found.
Romeo has left the earth,
leaving Juliet quite down.

Our Foolish Romeo,
believed in love at first sight.
Feelings his lover had brought,
had blinded him,
as deer in the headlights.

O Romeo, What was it,
that made you love her so?
Was it her beauty that enticed?
Since about her,
not much did you know.

In five days time,
You managed to see.
That Juliet,
another fool,
was the one you wish to marry.

O Romeo your story,
is not one of romance.
It is a tale of naive teens,
who had met at the scene,
of the Capulet's masquerade dance.

Romeo, your end,
definitely well deserved.
Let it be a lesson to us all,
love needs to be earned,
and to run on lust, and foolishness,
will certainly lead to downfall.
