“Parting is such a sweet sorrow, that I shall say goodnight till it become morrow.” -William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet
A song unsung,
Words unspoken,
A forbidden love story in a world where rules apply,
Laws existed, honor greatly valued
And the heart completely ignored.
“Goodbye, goodnight!” he whispered in her ear,
All she could do was watch him walk away
And sob quietly underneath the starry skies.
Star-crossed lovers destined for greatness
But forbidden to be together,
To fall for each other is a sin that cannot be forgiven,
But even the most virtuous cannot avoid sin,
For love is inevitable, and love is a sin.

Gemini is my one of my favorite songs by Sponge Cola, and they kind of incorporated the story of Romeo and Juliet in their MV which gave me an idea to write a sad, short poem based on that Shakespeare quote and the song of course, and since I’m dragging Ybramihan once again because they are the first couple I thought of while listening to this song, you can say that this is also a fanfiction…well…sort of.
