My Romeo came to me last night, with
a dozen roses and a pocket full of kisses. He climbed up my tree, and he leaned
against the windowsill. His dazzling green eyes gazed at me lovingly, as he
watched me brush my dark chocolate hair. I stare at myself, at my hazel eyes. I
can see them spark knowing of My Romeo's presence. I turn to see him looking at
me. Just looking at me. I smile at him, and he beams at me. Still does not move
from the windowsill as I approach him.
"Romeo, what are you doing here?" I ask still holding my brush gazing
into his eyes. I saw a hue of blue swimming in his pools of green. I couldn't
help myself but sigh in total, complete awe.
My Romeo, of course, does not speak. Instead, he walks away from the windowsill,
placing the roses on my bed, and grabbed the brush away from me placing it on
the bed. He grabs my hands and pull them to his warm, soft cheek. My heart
skips a beat and I hold my breath. Suddenly his arm wraps around my waist and
pulls me close. His hard chest warmed my body. I draped my arms around his
broad shoulders and our heads moving closer towards each other.
Then in a soft, soothing voice, he whispers, "I love you, My Juliet."
And just then, our lips pressed and I found myself melting into him. Our bodies
become one, and my world entwined with his. We are one, and forever will be. It
felt like a forever kiss before he left. I could not stop smiling, and dreamed
of our kiss over and over again.
I folded up my
newspaper, smiling after I read my story. It was supposedly about my love life
with this mysterious boy named Romeo. I look around seeing girls awing over my
lie of a story, their hands pressed onto their hearts, and eyes sparkling with
delight. A few boys glance my way, with a sheepish smile, and some even blush
pink. Only I have this affect on my fellow classmates.
What they don't know, this was only a dream. I never had a
Romeo, or someone climb up to my window with a dozen of flowers. They only
think I have this amazing love life, and coincidentally his name is Romeo, a
perfect match for my name, Juliet. However, this fairy tale does not end in
tragedy, more like a fantasy.
Does guilt play a role in this story? The answer, no, for I
am used to living a lie. I love the envy I see in girls' eyes when they read my
love life. I love the jealousy boys have for this "Romeo" when they
look at me.
Ah, I love my writings. There is nothing like being the
center of high school with them knowing my life. If only they knew the truth,
which will never happen.
Sometimes life can be hard, others it's just too easy. Whenever we can find the right level, it only lasts a second.
If I write, I speak words. If I speak, I write them down. It doesn't matter whi.. more..
