To Juliet

When I first saw your face
I felt like a disgrace
I put my hand out to dance
And fell into a deep trance
When we shared our first kiss
Nothing seemed to be amiss
What wonderful chemistry we had
You made my heart extremely glad
You're the light of my life
The very life I would sacrifice
Oh! How I loved you so!
Now you will never know
For the one thing that I did dread
Was you being dead
Now that it's true
I just don't know what to do
When I came to do my duty
I was still stunned by your beauty
The last time I would kiss you tender
That was when I did surrender
.....my Soul
