We're like modern Romeo and Juliet

We were in love since the first day we met


Love at first sight is cliche, I know

But I just can't stop these words that want to flow


They flow out of me like a river over stone

I really feel like a queen on a throne


You are my king, though that's plain to see

And I'm just so happy that you complete me


I thought you didn't like me, and boy was I wrong

I probably sound like that overplayed love song


You know the one, that one everyone hates?

But our love is as pure as Heaven's pearly gates


It will never stop, never cease to exist

Yet our love comes with a special twist


We met in grade ten, though you were in nine

Yet our love flourished like a sweet grape vine


Some people didn't believe, they laughed, they doubted

But you and me? Ha! Our love only sprouted


I know you love me, and I know I love you

Honestly, that's all I need to get through


But life has dealt me a bad hand of cards

And it broke my heart into sharp, broken shards


But you picked up those pieces and glued them together

And now I feel perfect, never under the weather


Because with you, everything is okay

And I wouldn't want to feel any other way
