Modern Day Romeo and Juliet

This is a story that should have never been

Love eternal something from within

The girl loved him with all her heart

She never thought they'd be apart

Then one fateful day came about

He didn't know this was how it would turn out

Gun shots ran throughout the halls

She ran in front of him and slowly falls

Catching her as blood flows out

Crying tears without a shout

She smiled up at him as she began to cry

Saying that she’s happy for him that she could die

Her eyes went back and her smile vanished

His heart began to pound and he became famished

The ambulance arrived and inside he waited

Hoping that there was someway this wouldn't be fated

Taking her hand he cried tears of sorrow

Calling her name hoping for her tomorrow

Waiting patiently to see her in his sight

Longing peaceful

Longing peacefully for this to become right

The doctors were coming near

He hoped that it wouldn't be drear

The doctor said I’m sorry for this

But I do not bring news of bliss

The girl is dead

She was shot in the head

He ran to her side in the hospital bed

Praying that she wouldn't be found dead

The life that was once so bold

Now was gone and very cold

Holding her and screaming her name

She didn't move it was still the same

Kissing her lips one final moment

Before slowly he began to lose it

If I can't have you here with me

There’s no point for me to be

Taking the pocket knife out and staring it down

Looking at his love with a sad frown

I love you so but why did you do it

I would gladly have died then see you with the bullet

With that he slit his wrist and said this is you

As he lay himself next to her seeing her in his view

The blood spilled and his eyesight blackened

But in his heart he was not saddened

Enclosing her hand inside his own

He whispered my love were going beyond

His final breath was gone and stillness remained

The love of the two was surely untamed

The doctors came in to witness the sight

This was surly a most horrible night

For each other they gave their last breath

Now forever together they will be in death
