Somewhere an old man dies And a child is born Mellifluous is the sound of his cries To the ears of his mother It's the start of a new life An year later the child exclaims Ah look! it's a butterfly The wind blowing carries the butterfly to the sea Down it looks to the blue and takes a dive A head pops up from the surface The butterfly shrieks and away it shies The shark scowls and starts to swim On its way it finds an alewife "Oh my Lord! What beast is this?" Before it loses its prey, the shark takes a bite The other fish ever so lone swims to shore There it finds a man with a butcher's knife It watches with awe as the old man exclaims "We shall meet in the afterlife." It's all a part of the journey ever so mellifluous to the ear And we call it life Cover by @ABrunetteGirl

Another Cinderella story? No. A retelling of Romeo and Juliet? Try again. Both? Maybe. *** Book 1 in the "Shades of Love" trilogy. *** Cecily Parker is your average girl. She's sweet but she's mean. You'd see her mean side when you first meet her but she grows on you. She doesn't want to be like this but she is and she doesn't care. Romeo Gibson is a new student in Cecily's school. Their first encounter is rather.... slimy but soon they become friends and start having feelings for each other. Though Romeo's past is something he isn't comfortable talking about which of course gets in the way of the two of them.
