Chapter 2 - Romeo and Juliet pt.1

For once I found true love

And called upon the lovebird doves                 But in my love

I am deceitful to those above

I have found the perfect companion

But he lives in the other mansion

I wed my sweetheart bringing family expansion      

And have yet to see my elders' reaction

My father found me another suitor        

But my heart is abounding with love for my partner            

I cannot dishonor my marriage with this intruder

How will I tell my parents without corrupting my honor?

Oh my heart is complete

And I will complete a great feat

To find myself back at my lovers' feet         Even though my family's fighting is incomplete

What is the meaning of this calamity         As it is causing my insanity          

I have a great audacity

But there is a chance of lethality

I will do anything to keep my full heart     Even death is better than being broken apart

I'm ready to depart for a new start

Without hearing my parents' remarks

I hate leaving my parents with the news of my tragic death      

And wish they didn't have to witness my last breath                  

But I could never handle the theft        

Of my full heart upon my ancestors' behest

My life was perfect until Tybalt's attack

But I must abstain from any kind of payback

My full heart lies with the journey needed to find my way back

Before my parents put up a plaque

If my heart is to keep its integral love

 I shall forever be with my beloved
