Romeo and Juliet the final curtain

The winds of time

blow memories of you

through my mind

A sweeter love,i shall never know

as the winds of time gently blow

the smell of honeysuckle in the air

two young people in love without a care

Forever and always

your love shall be mine

if only in my mind

For I have touched your soul

and you have touched mine

and I will love you till the end of time

The essence of you shall always lay gently on my mind

two souls searching for solace

as we move through time

you have brought me from a boy to a man

and for that I will always be in your debt

and something I will never forget

but fate wasn't kind to you and me

our love could never be

so I will dream of you from time to time

and the essence of you will always be on my mind

Romeo romeo where art thou romeo

I`m in your heart and in your mind

where I will remain until the end of time...

this is so sad. Romeo and Juliet is my favorite play...such a tragic, but epic love song they had together.
love can make us grow up in a hurry, especially when it does not last because of a break up or because of a death----we learn to love, and innocence bites the dust---when we love someone more than ourselves...maturity surely does come at a price.

[wordman]

thank`s jacob , you are right

[Bright Ocean Star]

Wordman, you wrote a beautiful, sentimental lovely piece. Love is not ever guaranteed. Sometimes, despite our best efforts, it is not meant to be. I liked your reference to the winds of time. Time blows on, regardless of our desires. Thank you for sharing this. It is very romantic and tragic.

Will, I made a note to read more of the words to Romeo and Juliet and you certainly helped. Your perception is wonderful and lively - the approach and writing beautiful. The tone/theme of always being there was inviting: there's a contest (Emily) about a line from Emily Dickinson, ...broken heart, not die in vain. That would be for you, not necessarily this poem, but certain one of yours. Anyway, seeing that beautiful face on the video made me realize one thing: I'm getting older by the second, seems like yesterday when I first watched that - oh how time flies. Thank you again for a lovely poem. Talent! Poetry 101 Tag - suppose we're still doing this.

[wordman]

well your just as pretty,and thank you for reading

[Confuser]

OMG, gotta tell my husband, I'm blushing. I'll say this, in my day, I wasn't too bad. But my husband, and Rob Thomas says, "She's so Mean." Thanks!

[wordman]

what the hell do they know! right

[Confuser]

ALOT! Once, my husband, made a really, really,dumb remark: And replied: I know you want to punch me in the nose; I was cornered in the foyer and Bam! The look of shock! Maybe the karate paid off, suffice it to say, he careful with his words. He's a good man. Been through too much in my life to hear bull...and life's too short. Right? How about you, did you ever find the right gal?

[wordman]

been married all my life lol

[Confuser]

Thought you married young/got divorced: didn't know you found someone; never thought about it. But you're laughing, so there's no telling with you. Anyway.....OH, bet she never knocked you in the nose! HA.

[wordman]

shot,cut stabbed,run over lol

[Confuser]

Laughing so hard think I heard a snort, doggie barked. Oh, how I love the country boys. And, I bet you deserved ever bit of it. HA...watched a docu on Tabia, the Mexican boxer. I bet you know who I'm talking of. Anyway, keep that sense of humour, if you are married you'll keep her happy. Bye.
